Featuring: Michael Grandinetti

Master illusionist Michael Grandinetti brings an interactive theatrical magic experience to the Kennedy Center’s Millennium Stage at the REACH. Drawing on illusions featured in his television appearances, the performance combines large-scale magic with music, comedy, and audience participation, inviting everyone in the theater to become part of the action.

The show reimagines classic magic effects—including levitation, teleportation, and mind reading—for a contemporary audience. Grandinetti has appeared on NBC’s *The World’s Greatest Magic*, The CW’s *Masters of Illusion*, and POP’s *Don’t Blink*, which airs in more than 100 countries. He has also been recognized by *Forbes* as one of today’s top magicians, called “a great magician” by *Entertainment Weekly*, and named a fan favorite by *Hidden Remote*. *Digital Journal* rated the show five out of five stars, and the performance is described as suitable for the entire family.
