Pat Davison and Tess are excited to be a part of the 2025 Valley Star Awards. They describe themselves as “the most fun show in the Valley.” The show includes comedy magic, juggling, audience participation and lots of laughs. Theu say the audience will laugh until they cry.
Pat says, “I grew up in Minneapolis, Minnesota and as such, I know how to ‘tickle the funny bones’ of the Winter Texan crowd.”
They have been world-traveling professional entertainers for more than 50 years. More than 40 of those years have included bringing fun and laughs to the Winter Texan RV resorts. They have brought laughter and thrills to audiences of all kinds on international TV shows, cruise ships, theaters, shows like Ringling Brothers Circus, Big Apple Circus, The Harlem Globetrotters, Branson Theaters and many more.
Pat began performing at the age of seven when his brother brought home a book of magic tricks from the library. He then earned a bachelor’s degree in speech and theater arts from the University of Minnesota, majoring in radio and television production. After graduation, he followed his youthful dream of running away with the circus and thus began his career in show business.
Since 1968 his juggling, balancing, and magic acts have brought him to more than two dozen countries around the world to entertain audiences as small as one and as large as 50,000.
He married his two-year long pen pal Marites in 1994. She, having a computer science degree, had never seen a live show, but she quickly became a part of it and earned a reputation as one of the theater world’s most accomplished showgirls and assistants. She is known best for her exotic beauty, glamorous smile, and elegant style.
More of their national and international performing credits include the Steve Harvey’s Big Time, The Statler Brothers Show, The Best of Burlesque Comedy Revue, State Line Hotel and Casino, opening act for Grand Ole Opry Star Little Jimmy Dickens, and more shows and venues in the USA and Canada.
Their shows are adaptable to virtually any venue, format or occasion. They specialize in helping you make your show or event memorable. Whether you need a five-minute act or a one-hour show – comedy, thrills, and skills – you will find it with Pat Davison and Tess’s Comedy Variety show.
Be sure to come and see them at the Valley Star Awards on Wednesday, February 12.
