Celebrity Comedy Magician: Joel Meyers
8:00 p.m., Wolf Kuhn Theatre, Misciagna Family Center for Performing Arts
Impossible is just an opinion. Joel Meyers will capture your imagination. As seen on America’s Got Talent, FakeOff on TruTV, Masters of Illusion, and Penn & Teller Fool Us on the CW, Meyers has also presented private performances for celebrities including Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, and Jennifer Lopez.
Combining sleight of hand and original routines with a larger-than-life personality and crowd-winning charm, Meyers specializes in taking audiences on what NBC calls “A roller coaster ride!” He’s an illusionist, mentalist, master of the stage, and magician. He’s a performer who “will capture your imagination” (Newsweek), and he’ll win you over time and time again. Joel Meyers is simply a mystery; or as Al Pacino put it best, he’s “the coolest person ever.”
