When I asked for updates from the ventriloquist community, Michael Westmoreland was one of the first to reach out!
He shared:
Scotty and I auditioned for AGT in Atlanta, GA January 2016. Scotty sang Amazing Grace with a little comedy twist and they loved it! We were called out for additional taping and featured on an episode at the beginning of the show in March. It was a lot of fun!
I later had a larger stage size “Scotty” made and wanted to keep my Maher figure, so I added a wig and created “Suzie Q” into my act. Still one of my favorite figures!
Thanks for the info Michael! I love to see the creativity of turning your original Scotty into Suzie Q. Glad that you were able to keep Clinton’s work in your act!
Michael is on Facebook, so be sure to say hi if you seem him there!
