Performances

The Great Tomsoni & Company (Poland's Finest Magician) are versatile performers with a background of music, magic, comedy and drama. John Thompson (The Great Tomsoni) got his start in show business as a musician and musical arranger. He has toured and recorded with 'Jerry Murad's Harmonicats,' 'The Harmonica Gang' and 'The Harmonica Jazz Quartet.'

He later joined forces with a comedy team with whom he coauthored and co-performed three record-breaking revues for the New York and Chicago Playboy Clubs. It was during this period that he developed his successful comedy magic act, The Great Tomsoni. John continued his comedy magic career in the Nevada casino venues as a supporting act for such stars as Carol Channing, Eddie Fisher and Ed Ames, the Pointer Sisters, Jose Feliciano, Robert Goulet, Brenda Lee, B.J. Thomas, Vic Damone, Diahann Carroll and the list goes on.

When wife and partner Pamela Hayes, actress and comedienne, joined the act, the billing became 'The Great Tomsoni and Company.' The Great Tomsoni and Company have been the recipients of many awards; Stage Magician of the Year, Society of American Magician's 'Superstar of Magic' award; Academy of Magical Arts' highest award; the 'Performing Fellowship'; Prince Rainer's 'Prix S.B.M.'; Magiques de Monte Carlo, Europe's most prestigious magic award.

John has recently been working as a consultant to his protege Lance Burton and to Penn & Teller and has just finished an I-Max movie with Sigfried and Roy. Last year he did the 'Oakridge Boys Live in Las Vegas,' the World's Greatest Magic and the PBS Special, 'The Art of Magic.' John has also received the most prestigious Masters Fellowship award from the Academy of Magical Arts.
