James Mako – Not Your Kids’ Magician
Friday March 28 @ 9:30 pm – 11:00 pm
An Adults-Only Exploration of the Spectacular
A show like none other. Irreverent, witty, cutthroat, and reflective. This show uses magic tricks as a medium to explore the present-day social climate. The show has no taboos. You’ll never see anything else like it.
Join us as James shares his unique viewpoints — developed as he has moved across the country seeking knowledge and using sleight of hand to connect with people from all walks of life along his travels.
…major differences that separate him from other magicians … the way he tells a story through his tricks.”
-Guero Namara
“James is a real artist and his magic speaks the truth”
-Jordan Allen

About James
James left home at 17 set on making his own way in the world. He began to travel; seeking life, adventure, and education wherever he could find it. Sneaking into top colleges to take classes on philosophy, psychology, and other topics; even once being thrown out of a mathematics class at Stanford University when the professor learned that he was not a student.
Along the way he searched for and learned from the best sleight of hand artists that he could find, often trading secrets on the way to developing his personal style.
After a few of his scripts began circulating around magic’s inner circles he began writing routines and scripts for other magicians and sleight of hand artists.
Now he is performing his own unique blend of entertainment mixing sleight of hand with poetry, storytelling, and a point of view.
