Now resides in Las Vegas, NV., where he performs under the name: The Boy with Tape on his Face.<\/p>\n<p>Fans lined the sidewalk waiting to enter the <a href=\"https:\/\/statetheatre.org\/\">State Theatre <\/a> last\u00a0night. It was great to see the bustle of people filling the seats!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been looking forward to this act since it was first announced and it was a perfect cap of the last weekend of October.<\/p>\n<p>Once seated, I scanned the stage for all the cool props laid out. Within minutes, the lights dimmed and the show was about to start.<\/p>\n<p>A couple of comedy acts started the evening off with interactions from the audience&#8230;.then Tape Face entered the Stage!<\/p>\n<p>Right off the bat, Sam went into the crowd and pulled guests on stage, every other skit, people were brought up to perform alongside. It was absolutely hilarious! I was laughing non-stop.<\/p>\n<p>There was a skit where he brought up a student and placed a large red button on a table.\u00a0 Without any instruction the boy pressed the button and immediately the whole theater filled with the red warning\/countdown alarm! Every 15 minutes the alarm would trigger and immediate eye contact from Sam Wills and the student in the audience.<\/p>\n<p>Glad to see the Lionel Richie\/Diana Ross &amp; Lady in Red Acts towards the end made it in the show. Tape Face has quite the stage presence! He has a cool Vaudeville feel, that I can easily watch over and over again!<\/p>\n<p>Final Thoughts&#8230;If you have the time, definitely\u00a0come check out Sam Wills\/ Tape Face act, loads of laughs! It&#8217;s a Must-See Show!<\/p>\n<p>If the State Theater brings him back, I&#8217;m definitely going to go!<\/p>\n<p>You can follow Tape Face at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/tapefaceboy\/\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/tapefaceboy\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For more information about the State Theatre in Easton visit <a href=\"https:\/\/statetheatre.org\/\">https:\/\/statetheatre.org\/<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Review By: Joe Scrizzi I first saw Tape Face debut on AGT back in 2016 and he returned in 2019 for the Champions.
