Darci Farmer is the 11-year-old ventriloquist from Edmond, Oklahoma who appeared on Little Big Shots. Dressed in a cowgirl outfit with her hair in ponytails, Darci brought her friend Katy the Yodeling Cowgirl with her on stage and together they sang (see video below). Darci admits to being the “ham” in the family and said her mom got her into beauty pageants. It was while working on her talent for the pageants that she discovered ventriloquism.

Darci’s coach Gary Owen said it took him just one look at Darci’s act to know that she was special. “She gets standing ovations everywhere she goes. She improves with every lesson.” Owen, who works with Darci once a week, was the one to submit Darci for Little Big Shots.
