Wilde and Hanes

Dangerous Comedy Jugglers

“A wicked cross between Penn & Teller and the Smothers Brothers…hilarious high tech vaudeville.” Herb Caen, SF Chronicle

Robert Wilde and Sean Hanes began performing their comedy-juggling act on California’s Venice Beach Boardwalk in 1984. Three years and nineteen citations for disturbing the peace later, comedian Rodney Dangerfield caught the act and immediately set up a showcase at Bud Friedman’s Improv Club in Hollywood. Since then, the team has performed at Comedy Clubs, Casinos, Conventions and Colleges around the country and Cruise Ships around the world. They’ve also been featured on TV shows including Comic Strip Live and Comedy Express on Fox, A&E’s Evening at the Improv, The Today Show on NBC, as well as several appearances on MTV’s Half Hour Comedy Hour.

Wilde & Hanes have also choreographed stunts for IBM, Footlocker, Miller Beer, 7-11 and Coca Cola TV commercial campaigns as well as for the films Monster High and LA Story.
