AJ Silver: New Star of the Old West

World class variety performer Angelo Iodice, a.k.a. AJ Silver, combines his signature trick roping, bullwhip artistry and dramatic boleadoras to create a unique act suited for any show, Western or otherwise.

With his ropes, whips and bolas flying through the air he creates a dramatic spectacle that is visually stunning. His technical skill and artistic flair work together to create his distinctive style, making him a crowd pleasing, powerhouse solo act, as well as a versatile ensemble performer.
His creativity has allowed him to tailor his act into many production shows. He has fused his roping with dance, rhythmic/skipping rope, aerial, comedy, burlesque and other performance disciplines allowing him to breath new life into a traditional artform. He has performed with Circus Flora, with Cirque du Soleil's Solstrom television show, and at festivals around the world.

In addition to his modern cowboy persona, Angelo also has a mysterious Spanish cowboy act with a Flamenco feel. Both suited for a wide range of entertainment venues including circus, stage, sports arenas, nightclubs, television and private events.

Despite his Western skills and bonafides, Angelo was brought up in the Bronx and now lives in Yonkers.
