-
Michele LaFong is a comedian, ventriloquist, and official protégé of the late Señor Wences.
In 1996, LaFong performed for Wences at his 100th birthday celebration at the New York Friars' Club. The centenarian was so impressed that he befriended LaFong and gave her his famous puppets Johnny and Pedro, plus taught her how to perform his classic routines.[1]
LaFong is the only ventriloquist authorized by the Wences estate to perform Johnny and Pedro, plus Wences' routines.[citation needed]
