Dezzy Dupree

Talent Scout

Dezzy Dupree has been hanging around the funfair for days, and Max A. Million has tried to get rid of Dezzy on multiple occasions to no avail. Dezzy is a talent scout interviewing the staff and taking videos of their performances, the food booths, the rides, and the midway games. Dezzy hasn't done anything illegal and has purchased tickets to everything, so Max cannot get help from law enforcement to get rid of Dezzy. 

Thus far, this talent hunter hasn't been amazed by anyone enough to make an official offer for the Ringling Sisters' Circus at the Diamonds and Glitz Casino on the Las Vegas strip.  Dezzy has been quiet about what venue s/he's recruiting for, but nobody has tried to get this scout's attention.  Dezzy might leave without candidates for the permanent show in Vegas. That would be a shame! 

Suggested attire: cheap polyester suit for men and click here for women

 

Pickles Peterson

Human Cannonball Assistant

Pickles Peterson was a popular lounge singer in Las Vegas who gave up a matinee show at the Golden Nugget to try to make it on Broadway. After being rejected over a hundred times and running out of savings, Pickles met Rockin Bobby. Bobby convinced Pickles to meet with Max at the funfair. Seeing no other option, Pickles agreed to be the human cannonball assistant at the show. 

Pickles is unhappy with the low-level assignment in the Big Top show but is strapped for cash and can't make it back to Las Vegas. Each night, this brave soul gets dressed in glamorous performance attire only to stroll out onto the stage to light a pretend wick of the human cannon. Pickles is unsure if there will be vacant positions for lounge singers back home in Vegas but is willing to take the risk.

Suggested attire: trapeze costume or other dance-type of gymnastics costume.

​

Salty Doolittle

Ventriloquist

Salty is a pre-show performer at the funfair who puts on a hysterical ventriloquist act to warm up the crowd. Salty started as a funnel cake cook and went up the carnival ladder to perform under the Big Top. 

Salty has been begging Max A. Million to allow the ventriloquist act to become part of the main show, but Max won't hear of it, as there is nobody to replace Salty. 

Salty Doolittle used to work with Snake Solei in the funnel cake stand, but due to many arguments over 'personal space,' Salty was reassigned to sweep the midway during the day.  Salty contends this is a better assignment.

Many people at the funfair say something is 'off' with Salty, but nobody can pinpoint the problem. Salty does talk a lot about chickens and how they are evil, but Salty hasn't harmed anyone. Many people are eccentric and have quirky personalities at the funfair. That is what makes the venue interesting.

Suggested attire: A cheap leisure suit or other performance attire. If you have a dummy or puppet, great! Bring it. If not, it's not a big deal; it would only be a prop for your costume.

​

Bobox Trunx

Elephant Handler

Bobox Trunx is the larger-than-life personality behind the scenes of The Greatest Show's elephant extravaganza. Riley's journey into elephant handling began while visiting the circus as a teen. Riley had mistakenly ended up inside the elephant enclosure and found a connection with nature they never knew existed. Bobox has had an insatiable passion for elephants since that accidental encounter.

Bobox's act is a jaw-dropping blend of grace, humor, and a deep appreciation for these gentle giants. Armed with a peanut cannon (yes, you read that right), they orchestrate a symphony of elephant antics that will leave you in stitches. Watch as the elephants twirl hula hoops, perform pirouettes, and engage in interpretive dance—all in pursuit of the elusive peanut prize.

Suggested attire: Safari/adventurer costume.  

 

Cameron Roarz

Lion Tamer

Cameron Roarz is a fearless and charismatic lion tamer known for their electrifying performances in the heart of The Greatest Show on Earth. With a deep-rooted love for big cats and a passion for the art of animal training, Cameron has dedicated their life to building an unbreakable bond with these majestic creatures. Cameron dedicates their free time to aiding wildlife conservation organizations.

Growing up in a family of circus performers, Cameron's journey into the world of lion taming began at a young age. From their very first encounter with lions, they felt an inexplicable connection and an unyielding desire to master the art of taming these mighty beasts.

Suggested attire: Lion tamer costume.

​

Mezzy Marvel

Tightrope Performer

Ladies and gentlemen, prepare to be astounded by Mezzy Marvel's gravity-defying antics. Our resident tightrope walker and thrill-seeker extraordinaire has a boundless desire to live on the edge—no pun intended—and has made a career out of defying gravity.

Mezzy’s death-defying feats are always a crowd hit. The audience is captivated by Mezzy’s struts, twirls, bicycle rides, and acrobatics on the tightrope above.

Mezzy's act is a heart-pounding spectacle of balance, bravery, and borderline insanity. Armed with a comically oversized umbrella (because every tightrope walker needs one, right?), they gracefully teeter, totter, and tumble their way across the wire. And if you thought juggling baseballs while blindfolded was impressive, wait until you see them juggle flaming bowling pins while eating a sandwich.

Suggested attire: Acrobatic, trapeze, or any fancy costume. 

​

Starr Dangerfield

Wax Museum Curator

Starr Dangerfield is the Greatest Show Wax Museum curator – a sideshow exhibit next to the Big Top. Starr creates and maintains lifelike figures of movie stars, politicians, and other celebrities. Starr offers VIP tours of the museum’s workshop to show the creation process of wax tributes. Starr lurks in the shadows of the fairgrounds to occasionally watch customers walk by. Some believe Starr is searching for the right person – but for what reason? 

Starr hand-picks customers for free VIP passes to the museum. Oddly, some of these VIPs are never heard from again. The ringmaster has installed hidden cameras in the museum and hopes to get to the bottom of what is happening. 

Suggested attire: Steampunk-inspired attire. Top hat, monocle,vintage-style topcoat. 

​

Flossy G. 

Acrobat

Flossy G. is an acrobat who doubles as a ride jock on the Vortex Gravitron roller coaster – a ride advertised as causing fewer than forty injuries to riders per year. Flossy G. has been known to fight with customers of the funfair and follow them into the parking lot.  Under the Big Top, Flossy G. radiates balance, agility, and strength on the trapeze, silks, and aerial hoops. An adrenaline junky, Flossy G. loves the combination of soaring heights and danger. 

Flossy G. only has a job at the funfair because of unbridled talent and leadership on the trapeze. Other than that - Flossy is a lawsuit waiting to happen, and Max has been warned multiple times by Flossy's colleagues.  However, Max is all about money and filling stands, so Max cannot afford to lose a good performer. 

Suggested attire: Trapeze costume or other dance-type or gymnastics costume

 

Max A. Million .

Ringmaster

Max A. Million is a peculiar master of ceremonies who rescues people from dangerous circumstances and recruits them to join the big family of The Greatest Show on Earth, a traveling circus and funfair. A former lounge singer who was terminated from a cruise liner and turned failed variety show host, Max is a true performer—a show person who will do anything to fill the stands under the Big Top. 

Max created the funfair a few years ago after the Max A. Million Variety Show was canceled from the Style Network due to a serious lack of viewership. Max talks a good game to win people in authority over but never seems to deliver on promises.  The funfair is struggling financially, and it is only a matter of time before everything collapses, and Max will be forced to fold up the tents. 

Suggested attire: Ringmaster costume. Top hat and whip as optional accessories. 

 

Skywheel Danny

Clown

Skywheel Danny is a circus clown who performs as the human cannonball and manages the bounce house on the midway between show times at the Big Top. Danny often struggles behind the daily parade and glares at the onlookers to frighten them. Skywheel has been accused of terrorizing locals by throwing candies at their windows in the middle of the night until they peer out the window and see Skywheel smile at them. Skywheel Danny hasn’t harmed anyone or even been charged with trespassing - yet.. 

In every city The Greatest Show on Earth has traveled, Skywheel Danny has had the police called in the middle of the night. Danny likes to mess with locals but knows how to terrorize others without breaking the law. 

Suggested attire: Clown costume. You can make it creepy if you desire. 

 

Snake Solei

Contortionist

Snake Solei was hiding in a filthy gas station restroom when Max's funfair traveled through town. Max made a secret deal with Snake to perform under the Big Top in exchange for protection from the feds. Snake is a contortionist who is wanted for attempted murder in another state, having allegedly stabbed someone after a road rage incident. Because Max believes idle time affords trouble, Snake manages the funnel cake booth on the midway outside of the Big Top show times. Snake is somewhat easy to get along with but can be highly unpredictable.

Many Funfair employees recognize Snake's face on television but cannot determine which show Snake was on. It's only a matter of time before they realize a steep reward is offered for Snake's capture. 

Suggested attire: Unitard or leotard and tights. Anything form-fitting. 

 

Rockin Bobby

Daredevil

Rockin Bobby is the daredevil of the Big Top show and sideshows. Willing to accept risks for cheap thrills, Rockin Bobby exudes recklessness and a lack of good sense.  From a life of jumping out of planes and pushing the limits of free-falls to diving too deep without SCUBA gear, Rockin Bobby has found a relatively safe home at The Greatest Show on Earth. Bobby leads the daily parades and runs the balloon dart game on the midway. Bobby participates in the Big Top show with a high wire feat, a knife-throwing act, a motorbike car jump, and a hook suspension performance. 

Rockin Bobby kisses up to Max A. Million, but behind Max's back, Bobby is anything but complimentary. Bobby aspires to be a ringmaster and run the funfair one day, but Max won't allow anyone to have the title of second in charge. 

Suggested attire: Stuntperson costume – a jacket with sequins, a popped collar, and boots.

 

Gillie Snowbridge

Fortune Teller

Gillie Snowbridge is the mysterious fortune teller who works in the Hall of Mirrors, a sideshow attraction at the funfair. At the end of the mirror maze, Gillie is posted with a six-foot mirror called The Mirror of Behāwian and claims it will reveal the onlooker's innermost appearance and desires. A giver of nightmares, Gillie lacks a conscience when delivering dreadful fortunes. Don’t ask Gillie anything you don’t wish to know!

Most customers who enter the Hall of Mirrors will exit a different person after the experience—morose, sad, and stressed. That is why Max recently restricted the attraction to customers over the age of 18. 

Suggested attire: A flowing dress, a fortune teller costume, and costume jewelry—tons of bangles and a jeweled headband.

 

Valerio Griffon

Strong Man

Valerio Griffon is potentially the strongest man on Earth. Desperate for work, Valerio confessed to Max that he was on the run from the law due to his involvement in a series of unfortunate events, including the murder of a man who challenged his strength on the street. Valerio has a criminal history and has been in trouble since he was a child pickpocket. Some say Valerio’s strength and poor choices are not due to environment or genetics. There is a word on the street that Valerio may have been part of a human research trial that went wrong. 

Valerio was born into a wealthy family. His father was a biochemist who worked for the biggest pharmaceutical company, X-Gen Pharm, Inc. Rumor has it that his father might have been engaging in illegal research on Valerio upon birth. 

Suggested attire: Strong Man costume. Wrestling attire or go shirtless if you've got the muscles.  Or, wear a muscle suit/shirt.

 

Rain Tempest

Escape Artist

Rain Tempest is an escape artist who has been thrilling audiences for decades after getting an early start with card tricks as a child on the streets. Max A. Million was lucky to convince Rain to join the funfair. Rain is internationally famous due to a live television special in the ‘90s that featured Rain being shackled in a steel cage filled with ice water and escaping in record time. Rain is obsessed with perfecting new illusions and becomes enraged when anyone stands between Rain and work. This illusionist isn’t happy about skipping a rehearsal to attend Max’s party under the Big Top.

Handcuffs, jails, chains, and ropes are no match for Rain Tempest.  Rain has escaped water jugs, packing crates, and even the belly of a whale washed ashore.  Currently, Rain is performing a vanishing elephant illusion, which is always a huge hit, leaving the audience mystified.  Rain is also working on a top-secret illusion that will be performed for the first time in Deadwood Valley at the debut Big Top show.

Suggested attire: Magician’s costume. 

 

Madam Vivian Lore

Bearded Beauty

Madam Vivian Lore is touted as the most beautiful bearded lady in the world. However, rumor has it that her lustrous beard is a fake! Madam Lore was Max's first recruit to The Greatest Show on Earth and will not hear of anyone accusing her of not having real facial hair.  Madam Lore manages the games of chance and skill on the midway.

Many of Madam Lore's colleagues have reported finding bags of hair and spirit gum in Vivian's trailer. However, Max would rather be in denial than an accessory to fraud, so Max has added a strict policy for the staff not to tattle on colleagues unless it is life-threatening.

Suggested attire: Bearded lady costume.  Or any glamorous gown with a long, flowing beard. 

​

Bat Von Tats

Painted Person

Bat Von Tats manages the Hair Braids & Henna Tattoo stand at the fairground entrance. Tattooed from head to toe, Bat draws curious gazes from the customers. Bat's first tattoo was at age eighteen, and ever since, Bat has spent over 1,000 hours in the tattoo chair, having every visible inch of skin tattooed, including eyelids, between the toes, gums, and even the white of an eyeball. Bat is super friendly, but the ink on Bat's skin is the only focus onlookers seem to have.

Bat has many good friends at the funfair, but a few people have been able to reveal Bat's dark side. 

Suggested attire: If you’re not tattooed – get some temporary ones! They make fabric sleeves that look like tattoos. Use makeup to draw on face tattoos.

​

Lolo Panor

Flea Circus Manager

The Flea Circus is a sideshow attraction in which fleas perform feats within tiny exhibits. Since The Greatest Show on Earth came together, Lolo has been attacked by various animal rights groups for using harnesses around fleas to make them appear to perform tricks for an audience. However, undercover investigators disguised as carnival workers have revealed that Lolo’s fleas are not real insects but only mechanical devices operated by electricity and magnets. Lolo firmly denies these allegations and contends that the fleas are real animals trained and not on harnesses. Lolo also claims the insects are taken care of well within federal animal housing standards. 

Lolo is a nanobotic engineer who fled from a foreign government and is hiding. Lolo will not allow photographs to be made and often wears disguises. 

Suggested attire: Think Willy Wonka meets the Ringmaster.  (But don’t outshine Max A. Million).

Spider

Ticket Clerk

Recently released from a long stint in prison for robbery, Spider is the head ticket clerk for The Greatest Show on Earth.

This clerk has a somewhat monstrous appearance with many visible scars but is charming, approachable, and craves fame and all of life's luxuries. 

Spider continually applies to be on reality and game shows and would do anything to become famous. Spider feels like the carnival is the reason the producers don't call. Spider is starting to hold a grudge toward colleagues. 

Suggested attire: Steampunk-inspired attire.

 

Alibi Krupnick

Acrobat

An only child spoiled throughout life, Alibi grew up with a mother, a maid, and a nanny in the most prominent estate in town. Alibi never had to want for anything. After a falling out with Alibi’s mother, Alibi was banished from the mansion and thrown on the streets. Max found Alibi on the side of the highway during a terrible thunderstorm and recruited Alibi to the funfair. Alibi is accustomed to having every whim catered to and isn’t used to working for a living.  This has caused severe problems since Alibi joined the show.

Alibi took trapeze and silks private lessons throughout childhood and quickly found a spot in the trapeze act with Flossy G.  However, everyone knows that Flossy is impossible to get along with. Alibi's bad attitude is not a good mix.  It's only a matter of time before Flossy G. drops Alibi from the swings! 

Suggested attire: Trapeze costume or other dance-type or gymnastics  costume

 

Tiny Huckabee

Stunt Assistant

An orphan forced to grow up too early, Tiny Huckabee relied upon pick-pocketing to eat and provide shelter until Tiny met Max A. Million and joined the show. Tiny is experienced with manipulation and trickery and suffers from a wonky moral compass. Despite Tiny’s reputation as a con artist, Tiny’s personality is generally peaceful and welcoming. Tiny assists Rockin Bobby with amazing feats and often has input on the design of stunts. 

Tiny Huckabee has been begging Max A. Million to promote Tiny to the big show. Tiny has expressed multiple times that s/he doesn't want to be Rockin Bobby's assistant any longer. Tiny believes s/he is a better stunt person than Bobby. 

Suggested attire: Stuntperson costume – a jacket with sequins, a popped collar, and boots.

 

Carson McCoy

Animal Keeper

Carson McCoy is one of the most attractive workers for The Greatest Show on Earth. Carson strongly regards colleagues and is fiercely loyal to close friends. Carson dreams of becoming the head zookeeper at the San Diego Zoo. Carson considers the animals of the funfair as children and everyone else as an extended family. 

The only hot button that Carson McCoy has is the mistreatment of animals. Carson would do absolutely anything to protect the animals of the funfair. 

Suggested attire: zookeeper or safari-style costume. 

 

Jerry Lee Park

Housing Manager

Jerry Lee Park has been in and out of jail since childhood. As a child, Jerry Lee was an aspiring actor and yearned to be part of the main show under the Big Top. However, Jerry Lee is void of talent. With a trailer full of disguises, this manager is driven by greed and gluttony, with no ethical qualms about causing pain or putting others in danger for financial gain. 

Word on the lot is that Jerry Lee is looking for a new job. With all the quarrels and battles in the backyard (where the housing trailers are located), Jerry Lee is losing it and has had enough. 

Suggested attire: Cheesy leisure suit. A circus-themed costume is an option if you feel festive. 

 

The Dragon

Chief of Security

The Dragon is ruthless, fierce, and has an uncontrollable temper. The Dragon often shows remorse and laments about previous outbursts at the funfair, so Max is giving The Dragon time to work out issues. The Dragon can be callous towards others but is intensely protective of those considered as friends.  The Dragon heads up security for the funfair and takes the job seriously.  

The Dragon is on a probationary plan with Max A. Million to get the angry outbursts under control. If The Dragon doesn't stop having the daily fits of rage, Max has already put into motion the paperwork for The Dragon's dismissal from the funfair. 

Suggested attire: Security costume. A black windbreaker with earpiece and walkie-talkie are optional props.
