Mike Rose - Magician

Mike Rose is both, a magician and a comedian, just not always simultaneously! Regardless if he’s convulsing an audience with his quick wit, or finding a chosen playing card using a technique popularized by a forgotten Viennese magician from the first half of the Nineteenth Century, you are guaranteed to be entertained. Why? Because Mike has performed in over 25 states and Canada during the last 20 years and brings his expertise to every show. Although Mike will amaze you with technically demanding sleight of hand, you may be laughing too much to realize it until after the show (Mike has been known to realize many things after the show, like the fact that he misplaced his car keys).
Mike Rose is a member of the International Brotherhood of Magicians, the Society of American Magicians, and the Magic Collectors’ Association. However, he is the first to realize (after the show, while looking for his car keys) that none of those organizations probably mean very much to you! But suffice to say, Mike really is a magic comedian, a magic historian and an award winning author. And, Mike is known to occasionally include tidbits of magic history in his performances which often result in humorously obscure references that are obscure (and humorous).
