Biography

Stephen Gratto is not just another product of a misspent youth. Sure he put in lots of time as a kid mastering the arts of juggling, unicycling, rope walking, stilt walking, and balancing, but he managed to find time to get a BA in physics, a BS in electrical engineering, and a MS in teaching. After six years spent yawning behind a computer at the IBM corporation, Stephen chucked his engineering career and became a middle school and high school physics teacher, and currently a high school principal, as well as a professional performer. Physics and juggling are as closely related as teaching and performing. So, Stephen has merged his careers together to create a selection of entertainment options that will educate, elucidate, and enthrall the masses. For over twenty years Stephen has been performing his comedy variety shows (and other more educational options) for delighted audiences at fairs, festivals, corporate parties, and schools wherever quality family entertainment is appreciated. Stephen resides in the beautiful Adirondack Mountains of New York State, but he is available for performances around the country and around the world.
