In 1992 Scott moved to Israel where he got serious about juggling and in the summer of 1993 he street performed nightly on Ben Yehuda Street. Scott really honed his skills performing a torch juggling routine with some comedy while collecting shekels in a hat. With that experience, some friends recommended him to the Cardo Culinarium restaurant, a Roman theme restaurant in the Old City of Jerusalem, where he worked for 6 years performing about 200 shows/year in his toga.
