Watch the Most Entertaining Ventriloquist Performances

Ventriloquism is an entertaining form of art where the ventriloquist is accompanied by a puppet on stage and creates the illusion that their voice is coming from elsewhere. The ventriloquist’s puppet is operated by the ventriloquist performer’s hand, and with little or no movement from the performer’s mouth, the ventriloquist creates the illusion that the puppet has come to life. Some of the most enjoyable performances from ventriloquists are from comedian Jeff Dunham, accompanied by the ‘little guys in his suitcase’, and singer Darci Lynne, alongside her puppets, Petunia the bunny rabbit and Oscar the Motown mouse.
