The Passing Zone

The Passing Zone is one of the most successful and sought-after comedy acts working today. Owen Morse and Jon Wee met in 1986 at a juggling convention and instantly knew they were destined to be a team. Two weeks after their first performance together they won the Silver Medal at the International Jugglers’ Association Teams Competition. The next year they won the Gold.

Over the course of their career, The Passing Zone has set five Guinness World Records and won 18 Gold Medals from the International Juggler’s Association. The International Juggler’s Association also presented them with the Award of Excellence, (the most prestigious award in juggling,) for “excellence in the art of juggling through professional performance.”  In addition, they have been inducted into the National Speaker’s Association’s Speaker Hall of Fame.

Known as much for their comedy as their juggling skills, Jon and Owen were featured twice on the gala stage at the Just for Laughs Comedy Festival in Montreal and have opened for comedians Jay Leno, George Carlin, Bob Newhart, Bob Hope, and Penn & Teller.

They can often be seen doing entertainment and keynote speaking at corporate events, for which they are a natural fit. They appeal to all ages, and all walks of life. They are always a hit. Not only do they entertain, but they can customize their performances by juggling a company’s product, incorporating their slogans, and inspiring groups to perform as a team, with excellence and creativity.
