Flambeaux (performer)

For the traditional New Orleans Mardi Gras torches, see New Orleans Mardi Gras § Flambeau carriers.

Flambeaux is a fire performer that made it to the Top 40 on NBC's hit series America's Got Talent season 3. His audition performance was featured on-air, although his second show in Las Vegas only had a few clips aired on the show. He made it to the third round in Los Angeles where he was voted off the show.[1]

He has been performing fire in New York City since 1991 in shows such as Le Scandal [2] and Simon Hammerstein's The Box.[3]

Flambeaux became an underground icon in downtown New York City through his performance troupe dubbed "The P-Cult". The P-Cult formed in 1999[4] and disbanded in 2007 around the time Flambeaux joined the cast of "The Box."

He first learned fire through his time spent around the circus Archaos in London from 1988-1989.

He and his wife are fire partners and business partners. They have performed together in productions such as Top Talent USA at Turning Stone Resort & Casino.[5][6][7]
