(ENGLEWOOD, NJ) -- Beloved Las Vegas headliner, comedian, ventriloquist, singer, and Season 2 winner of America's Got Talent, Terry Fator is bringing his all-new show, Pure Imagination to the Bergen Performing Arts Center (bergenPAC) on Sunday, April 19, 2026. Showtime is 7:00pm.
Fator, known for his extraordinary blend of comedy, spot-on vocal impressions, and lovable cast of puppets, promises audiences an unforgettable journey deep into the magic of creativity, music, and laughter. Pure Imagination takes fans behind the curtain of Terry’s brilliantly inventive mind, celebrating his most iconic characters, including Winston the Impersonating Turtle, Maynard Thompkins, Vikki the Cougar, and Duggie Scott Walker (the annoying neighbor) among others - while introducing brand-new surprises—complete with the heart, humor, and musicality that have made him a Las Vegas legend for nearly two decades.
“Pure Imagination is a totally different concept than my road shows in the past,” Fator said. “I found that throughout my life my imagination had spawned countless characters, song parodies and comedy skits and I compiled them all together to give my audience a fun look into my creative psyche.”
After over 18 years, more than 3,500 performances, numerous awards and millions of tickets sold headlining record-breaking shows on the Las Vegas Strip, Pure Imagination will take Fator on one of the biggest tours of his career. These multimedia, immersive productions feature comedy, music and parody through Terry’s unmatched skill as one of the world’s top ventriloquists, with a cast of characters showcasing songs from rock, country, soul, pop, heavy metal and Broadway.
Tickets range from $49-$149 and are available for purchase online. Bergen Performing Arts Center (bergenPAC) is located at 30 North Van Brunt Street in Englewood, New Jersey.
The show features the classic characters Terry has made famous over the years: Winston the Impersonating Turtle; Country Star Walter T. Airdale; Apollo Theater legend Julius; perpetual slacker and stoner Duggie; Vikki the Cougar and the world’s greatest Elvis impersonator, Maynard Tompkins.
“One idea I had is to add in characters and impressions based on real-life stars people around the world know and love,” Fator said. “So you can look forward to seeing and hearing Willie Nelson, Michael Jackson, Justin Bieber, plus a few surprise ‘guests’”.
