Count to three: There’s never been a better time for a magic show. (Please Wes Iseli, make it disappear!) Iseli, a consultant for “The Carbonaro Effect” on truTV, has been wowing audiences with his magic since age 7, and gained local fame through his 24-hour fundraising shows. In Virtual Magic Show, he promises to teach us a few of his tricks, pull a rabbit out of a hat, and entertain with Vegas-style illusions. The event is a fundraiser for the Woodbrook and Agnor-Hurt elementary school PTOs.
Not only has Wes Iseli been perfecting his magic act since the age of 7, he’s built an entertainment business that employs magicians, jugglers and clowns. Fast-paced and filled with surprises, Iseli and his crew unveil Vegas-style modern illusions but keep tradition with a couple of rabbit and dove tricks, too. He also performs an annual fundraiser for The Children’s Miracle Network by staging magic outside a local Walmart for 24 hours during the holiday shopping season.
Friday, December 16. $10-15, 7pm. Jefferson School African American Heritage Center, 233 Fourth St. NW. 825-0650.
