I have known DONIMO since the very beginning of his career, he was always an artist who as a magician could astound and astonish audiences and as a comic would have people rolling around with laughter.... John Row

After more than 30 years of performing magic and comedy, one question is asked more than any other: “What happens when things go wrong?”

Welcome to the world of Donimo, the silent clown who turns mistakes into masterpieces. In Donimo’s universe, failure isn’t feared—it’s celebrated as the legendary BIG FLOP.

With mind-boggling magic, exquisitely mistimed tricks, and beautifully clumsy antics that sometimes work, Donimo delivers timeless physical comedy filled with heart, humor, and surprise. This is a joyful, wordless performance that delights the soul, sparks laughter, and awakens the playful spirit in audiences of all ages.

When I step onto the stage as Donimo The Silent Clown, you can expect impeccable comedic timing and an irresistible magnetic charm. People of all ages can't help but fall in love with this whimsical character, ensuring a delightful show for everyone in the audience. Let's make some magical memories together!

I have been bringing the enchantment of magic to life on stage for over three decades and have often been likened to the legendary Buster Keaton and Stan Laurel. Through my physical comedy and visual prowess, I can captivate an audience's attention and admiration without ever uttering a single word. Throughout my journey, I've had the privilege of performing for a diverse range of audiences, including notable figures like the Prince of Wales, the Sultan of Brunei, and the Royal family of Monaco. I've even shared the stage with world-renowned musicians and comedians. My universal appeal has led me to make appearances on television programs broadcast across the globe and grace stages at prestigious venues, from the Edinburgh Festival to far-flung locations like Nevada, Brazil, and even China.

By fusing the ancient art of clowning with the golden age of silent screen comedy, along with contemporary techniques from respected physical theatre teachers like Jacques Lecoq, Philippe Gaulier, and Pierre Byland, I've been described as a 'modern black and white bygone in a world of colour.' I perform daring yet uproarious feats, with timeless charm emanating from my entertaining facial expressions, skillful comedy, physical displays, juggling tricks, and sheer charisma.

My remarkable ability to connect with people of all ages and backgrounds, paired with my self-contained and highly versatile act, makes me the perfect entertainment choice for both corporate events and special parties. Whether you're after some casual mix and mingle magic to get your guests chattering or a laugh-out-loud heartwarming stage spectacle that leaves the crowd jubilant, I can curate the perfect party package to suit your needs. So, if you're curious about how I can bring an authentic taste of this time-honoured tradition to your special event, feel free to reach out for more information.

I have known Donimo since the very beginning of his career. I have watched him work and grow. He was always an artist who as a magician could astound and astonish audiences and as a comic would have people rolling around with laughter.

John Row

Donimo engenders sympathy in his most apologist comic persona, and he is of course, Hysterically funny. A sort of cross between Stan laurel and Buster Keaton, Donimo is extremely gifted and very special.

Television Newspaper

We had the pleasure of seeing Donimo the silent comic performing his comedy routine. He presents a Hulot image of an act struggling with wonky props, accidents and innocent ineptitude, with every unfortunate happening a complete surprise to himself. This is a delightful routine of pure variety & Gentle humor.

Alan Saddler, Entertainment Critique

Nina Myscow – New Faces

Watched him on holiday at California cliffs. Good magic and absolutely hilarious. Had me up on stage helping out.

Martin Dell

Joe is the most amazing magician and entertainer. I have been lucky enough to see his performances several times and they never get old. His close up magic is second to none and his slapstick jester is hilarious and incredibly clever. I would not hesitate to recommend him for any event. He is well worth every penny, you won’t be disappointed.

Susan Whymark

After watching all of the competitors, the entire panel of international judges voted unanimously to award Mr Baker the highest honor of the festival, The Gold Clown. Mr Baker’s performance was artistic and unique. It was also very funny. It was almost as if we had the opportunity to see Buster Keaton or Stan Laurel live on stage. His Gold Clown was well deserved.
