Thomas Raynor

From a young age, Thomas always had an affinity for creating art and experiences that help other escape the world around them for those filled with joy, fantasy, and fun. This passion for music, theater and storytelling ultimately led him to pursue a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Musical Theater at the State University of New York – Fredonia, where he graduated top of his class with honors.

 Since graduating, Thomas has taken his affinity for telling stories and connecting with audiences to new and unexpected heights by pursuing a career in communications, working with some of the biggest brands across the restaurant, hospitality, entertainment, and retail industries.

Thomas found his way back to performing when he traded his legs for a tail, submerging himself in the clear blue waters of the Florida springs and emerging as a consummate merman and underwater performer. His training as a professional actor and improv artist informs each and every appearance as Merman Thomas, letting him connect with audiences in new and unexpected ways that create lasting memories for those who see him flip his fins.
