A whirlwind of comedy, characters and classic variety – one unforgettable snapshot at a time …

SNAPSHOT is a fast-moving one-man comedy variety show celebrating the golden days of entertainment. Packed with characters, physical comedy, surprises and unforgettable moments, Rob Pearson brings the lost art of classic variety roaring back to life. From comedy and impressions to mime, magic, music, dance, puppetry and harmonica, SNAPSHOT delivers a whirlwind of silly, clever and ridiculously fun entertainment where anything can happen and every moment is a surprise.

Rob Pearson spent over two decades performing with the legendary Australian variety groups The Four Kinsmen. They were one of the most entertaining, dynamic and sought-after variety groups in Australia. They brought joy to the hearts and smiles to the faces of hundreds of thousands of Australians, young and old, from the city to the outback, appearing regularly on “THE MIKE WALSH SHOW”, “BURKE’S BACKYARD”, “THE DON LANE SHOW”, “‘HEY HEY IT’S SATURDAY”, “MIDDAY”, “CELEBRITY FAMILY FEUD” & “GOOD MORNING AUSTRALIA”.

They were one of Australia’s most highly awarded groups, stacking up a remarkable 27 Mo Awards including a Gold Mo for ‘Variety Performers of the Year’ and four ACE Awards, including a ‘Lifetime Achievement Award’.

The Four Kinsmen hold the distinction of being the first Australian entertainers to headline their own show on the Strip in Las Vegas, where they wowed U.S. audiences with their own unique brand of entertainment.
