John Higby brings back that nostalgic toy, the YoYo, to the Portsmouth West End stage. Remember those old favorite tricks such as Walk the Dog and Rock the Baby? Be amazed be more March 8 at 2pm. (Click headline for full article) 

See more new and bizarre tricks, such as Boingy-Boingy and Iron Whip. Yo-yos attached to bouncy balls, yo-yos with 10-foot strings, and multiple yo-yos looping while hula hooping and unicycling are just some of his finely tuned feats.

High skill and deft timing to swingin' music coupled with high energy and sarcastic humor make the Yo-Yo Show a favorite for every age. As seen on David Letterman, he holds a Guinness World Record, a YoYo World Champion title, and has performed in over 20 countries.

Tickets are $12 and may be purchased in advance online. Tickets may also be purchased at the door (cash & checks only) a half-hour prior to the performance, based on availability.
