“…loose-limbed jester Nate Cooper is back “to throw a little gas on the fire” as he juggles machete-like knives while flailing about on his pogo stick. Truely, it’s an act you have to see to believe.”
Ellis Nassour, City Guide New York
“There’s an expert roller skater who keeps falling over. He was my favorite. The more Nate Cooper, a willowy postmodern clown, lost control—or worse, threatened to—the more we doubled up with laughter” … “if skating disastrously were all there is to Mr. Cooper’s hilarious act, I wouldn’t be hailing him as some kind of mad genius.”
John Heilpern, The New York Observer
“let’s invite the kid back for another night…he’s obviously working his heart out for you”
David Letterman, The Late Show
“…Cooper was the clowning, slap-stick genius.”
Kay Liggett, Ohio Journal Tribune
“…nothing was more astonishing than Nate Cooper tapping on roller skates…lyric and truly funny.”
Janet Anderson, Philadelphia City Paper
“…Cooper, who has never shown a more dazzling arsenal of moves, yet remains a clown genius.”
Terry Morris, Dayton Daily News
“…he achieved a form that is a mélange of the pathos of Charlie Chaplin’s “Little Tramp”, the eccentric dancing of Ray Bolger and the tapping of Bojangles.”
Don Henke, Dayton City Paper
“…he pratfalls through a hilarious routine with a comic’s wit and timing.”
Carol Norris, The Cincinnati Enquirer
“…the resident clown and pratfall expert.”
Janet I Martinea, The Saginaw News
“…he carried the slapstick to the extreme…he captivated the whole audience with his humor, innocent face and infectious smile.”
Jacqueline E. Tirey, The Times-Mail
