Wes Iseli magic, illusion show comes to Charlottesville

Contributors

wes iseliFor the first time ever, the Wes Iseli Magic and Illusion Show will visit the Jefferson School Heritage Center on Friday, December 16th at 7pm. Wes is one of the most dynamic magicians on the East Coast headlining magic conventions throughout the country. He has performed throughout the area, but what’s significantly different is this Big Show is Vegas Quality yet Family Friendly and it’s unlike what you may have seen in years unless you followed Wes to another state. Charlottesville will experience a Las Vegas caliber of magic and illusions to make your jaw drop. The show is filled with excitement for 90 minutes.

Wes Iseli has appeared on NBC, CBS, ABC, PBS and TruTV. He has headlined magic conventions, and has worked on the Carbonaro Effect on TruTV as a magic consultant & animal trainer. Wes has performed as a magician full time since 1996 appearing on grand stages in theatres, trade shows, auditoriums, etc. throughout the country. He has performed a 24 hour magic show annually since 2007 for the Children’s Miracle Network. You read correctly, Wes stays awake for 24 hours straight for a worthy cause. He is praised for his community outreach efforts as he uses the power of magic to brighten the days of the young and seasoned.

The Heritage Center was chosen as the host venue due to its ample free parking, convenient location in the heart of Charlottesville, and its state of the art facility. Also, the center is handicap accessible. The facility has become a cultural hub hosting events such as the Look3 Festival, Virginia Film Festival, and the Juneteenth Festival. Now the crowd will be in awe over the classic swords through box illusion, the use of doves and rabbits, along with new mesmerizing illusions you may have only seen on television.

Tickets are only $10 for children and $15 for adults. Pick yours up at Plan9 Music (Seminole Shopping Plaza 29N), Sidetracks Music (2nd St Downtown along the railroad tracks), Alakazam Toys & Gifts (100 E. Main St. Downtown Mall). To buy tickets safely online: wesiselimagic.eventbrite.com.

If tickets have not sold out then there will be tickets sold at the door but get them early to secure your seat. Seats are limited.

The Jefferson School is located 233 4th Street, Northwest, Charlottesville, VA 22903, across the street from Staples (Downtown).
