Tape Face is a non-verbal comedy act built around visual storytelling rather than spoken jokes. Created by New Zealand performer Sam Wills, the show explores how humor can land through gesture, music cues, and everyday props. Instead of following a set plot, the performance unfolds as a series of tightly built comic sequences, each relying on timing, audience awareness, and playful misdirection. The act first drew attention on America's Got Talent, later returning for America's Got Talent: The Champions. Staged at the Underground Theater inside MGM Grand, its wordless format keeps the show accessible to all, regardless of language.
