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. \n\n\n\nJoin 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. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n…major differences that separate him from other magicians … the way he tells a story through his tricks.” \n-Guero Namara\n\n\n\n\n\n\n“James is a real artist and his magic speaks the truth” \n-Jordan Allen\n\n\n\n\n\nA Note about Ticket Pricing\n\n\n\nIllusion Magic Lounge was started as a passion project to help bring world-class magic to everyone. If for some reason you’ve had a tough holiday season\, email us at info@illusionmagiclounge.com and we will get you a ticket at a price you can afford. \n\n\n\nAbout James\n\n\n\nJames 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. \n\n\n\nAlong 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. \n\n\n\nAfter 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. \n\n\n\nNow he is performing his own unique blend of entertainment mixing sleight of hand with poetry\, storytelling\, and a point of view. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nClick here to buy ticketsSell tickets online with Ticket Tailor URL:https://illusionmagiclounge.com/show/james-mako-not-your-kids-magician-dec-26-2024 ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://illusionmagiclounge.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/SHOWPOSTER-1-e1709684244766.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241221T190000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20241221T210000 DTSTAMP:20260426T000052 CREATED:20241107T044232Z LAST-MODIFIED:20241204T040635Z UID:10000345-1734807600-1734814800@illusionmagiclounge.com SUMMARY:Holiday Hocus Pocus with Jonathan Neal & Christopher Hart DESCRIPTION:BUY TICKETS!\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYour evening of magic and mystery!\n\n\n\nGet ready to unlock a full evening of magical entertainment for your enjoyment.
