Apollo Robbins: The Gentleman Thief

artist bio:

We know what you are thinking.

Are you CRAZY? You want me to hire a professional thief to STEAL from our guests!!!

Yup! And you’ll be glad you did.

Of course you can hire the same old been-there-done-that after dinner show or walk-around artist or you can book a truly innovative, one-of-a-kind performer your guests will be talking about long after the party is over.

Apollo Robbins is the Gentleman Thief. A world-renown expert on Cons, Scams and Deception; Apollo’s stage show is a highly entertaining, interactive, laugh-a-minute test of manipulation and diversion.

Best known for challenging his audience to “catch him in the act”, Apollo is much more of an intellectual performer rather than a production show filled with smoke and mirrors.

Much of his pick-pocket skills are built on the same fundamental foundation of sleight-of-hand and illusion with one big difference there are no tricks or plants. What Apollo does is REAL. However, the show is not intrusive, no one is embarrassed and nothing is really stolen.

Apollo is a Celebrity Performer. Many of your guests may recognize him from his TV show, “Brain Games” with David Copperfield, “The Real Hustle”, cameo on TNT’s “Leverage” starring Timothy Hutton or numerous appearances on talk shows like “The Today Show”, “The View” or “Montel Williams”. On January 7th, he was featured in The New Yorker and in Slate Magazine.

Or they might recall when he first made national news as the man who pick-pocketed the Secret Service while entertaining former president Jimmy Carter, relieving them of their watches, wallets and confidential itinerary.

No matter how they know Apollo, audiences and planners universally rave about his unique abilities and charming personality.
