Nels Cremean - "In Jest" Shows, Keynotes, and More - Variety Artist - Clean Comedian - Keynote Speaker - Professional Oddball - Buffalo, New York, USA
Nels Cremean ("Kre-MEEN") is a highly sought after performer and presenter with nearly three decades of experience as a professional oddball. Nels works solo and with others to "defy gravity and spread joy" in North America and abroad through comedy variety shows, keynotes, ministry, arts-in-education, and more.
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, helped produce shows and commercials, taught performing arts courses and workshops, and provided shows and presentations for countless companies, organizations, and events.
Currently CEO of In Jest, Inc., Nels continues to defy gravity (the physical force as well as "graveness" or "terminal seriousness"). When he is not entertaining, educating, or uplifting others, Nels lives and laughs with his wife and five children in Buffalo, New York.*
