Family Series

Mario the Maker Magician

Center for the Arts, Concert Hall, Fairfax Campus

Feb
20

Mix magic with robotics, add hilarious slapstick, and voila—you have Mario the Maker Magician! In his Center for the Arts debut, Mario infuses classic magic tricks and illusions with high-tech robotic innovation to create an assortment of homemade contraptions that do his comedic bidding. Infectiously positive and bursting with heart, Mario is on a mission to entertain and inspire future computer programmers, AI specialists, and robotic engineers along the way. He has shared his “gleeful insanity” (Vogue) on Sesame Street, NBC’s Universal Kids, The Tonight Show, and a 2018 tour with illusionist David Blaine, who calls him “the best kids’ magician in the world!” 

Recommended for ages 4–12.
