Luminato celebrates the art of the impossible. Ever see a cloak of invisibility? Can a stranger see the images in your mind? And how can you rely on the evidence of your senses, when what you are experiencing is literally beyond belief? Three of the world’s master magicians present stage shows that will challenge your view of reality. Spain’s Juan Tamariz, the most respected practitioner of this arcane art, performing one show each in Spanish, English, and French, boggles the mind with his minimalist and improvisational magic. Charismatic mentalist Max Maven, once described by Orson Welles as “the most original mind in magic,” turns mind reading into compelling psychological theatre. And Mac King, a humourist with a magical bent, conjures up laughter for all ages. Meanwhile, Bob Sheets, a fourth master of magic, brings his own brand of manic comic showmanship to free street

“Of all the magicians [Tamariz] is at the pinnacle of how one should feel, present and transmit magic. For this reason, he is considered the god of all magicians.” - Nachrichten

“Mr. Maven's category-defying mindreading show veers into conceptual art.” - The New York Times

“Mac King is a god.” - Penn & Teller
