Nels Cremean: Professional Fool

With more than two decades of experience as a professional fool, Nels Cremean ("Kre-MEEN") is a highly sought after performer and presenter, providing comedy variety shows, keynotes, and more throughout North America and abroad.

The seeds were planted for a life of foolishness when Nels went to his first performing arts workshops at eight years old. During the next decade, he studied physical comedy, juggling, acting, and other arts, applying his talents everywhere from street festivals to theatrical productions.

Since those early days, Nels has studied theater at the University at Buffalo, completed degrees in mathematics and education, toured with a non-profit circus, trained with instructors from Ringling Brothers and Cirque du Soleil, written for Juggle magazine, developed and taught many performing arts workshops, and provided shows and presentations for countless corporations, organizations, and events.

Currently CEO of In Jest, Inc., and Chair of the Humor & Health Association of Western New York,  Nels continues to defy gravity (the physical force, as well as graveness or "terminal seriousness"). When he is not entertaining, educating, or uplifting audiences, Nels lives and laughs with his wife and five children* in Buffalo, New York.
