ABOUT THIS SHOW
Witness a one-of-a-kind magic show with award-winning magician Paige Thompson as she takes the audience through the chapters of her magical life. Each trick reveals a new "Paige" of her journey, from childhood performances to the moments that shaped her magical career. Get ready for a captivating and personal experience where magic and life’s most powerful moments intertwine.
In Magic Through the "Paige's," Paige shares moments from her life that have motivated her to pursue her passion and fuel the inspiration for her unique take on Magic. This non-stop journey from Paige’s start in Southern California all the way to the bright lights of Chicago (where her skill in close-up magic was honed at the famed Chicago Magic Lounge) will make you laugh, fill you with wonder and leave you astonished. This sophisticated and modern take on traditional magic compresses a 30-year passion for the art of illusion into a 90 minute tour-de-force.
While Paige has mastered the performance of large scale illusions and death defying escapes, her passion for close-up performance beckons her to more intimate theaters where audience participation and interaction make a show fun, exciting and completely perplexing. Don’t miss your chance to join Paige as she shares her life lessons, memorable moments and striking stories in Through the “Paige’s.”
SHE IS PERSONABLE AND IS A LEGITIMATE TRIPLE THREAT WITH EXCELLENT ILLUSION, STAGE AND CLOSEUP MAGIC SKILLS.
