Hi, I am James Kruk I have been an entertainer since I was just a teenager when I booked my first commercial. Since then I have performed as an actor, singer, and spokesperson for the past 20 years. I am a highly trained (Circle in the Square, New York, New York University Tisch School of the Arts, University of California Santa Cruz, The Groundlings Los Angeles) Actor, Improvisational Comedian, Singer, and general multi talented Entertainer. I have performed in theatres all across the United States in Shakespeare Festivals,Plays, and in Rock and Roll bands. I bring all this experience to my fantastic Elvis shows.

I Started performing as Elvis in 1998 when I auditioned for noted Comedian/Writer/Actor Steve Martin as he needed an Elvis for the touring production of his play "Picasso at The Lapin Agile."   Steve had met Elvis in his days performing in Vegas, so he knew exactly what Elvis was like and he wanted  that same flesh and blood person to play the role, not just a hip shaking swaggering generalisation. I guess I fit the bill as I went on to tour in the Broadway budgeted production for 2 years and  over 450 performances. I delighted crowds as large as 3500. This gave me a lot of time to perfect my performance as Elvis and bring it to you. I am certain I will give you a performance to remember, because like Elvis I put all my heart and soul into every performance. I truly love spreading joy through the persona and music of Elvis Presley, we all go through a historical journey of the heart together and for a short magic while taste just a little bit of yesterday.
