Mister Illusion (or Mr. Illusion) is a classical magician who believes that magic should be entertaining and blended with comedy which is appreciated by the audience. Each audience is different due to age, beliefs, ethnic background, and experiences. When you book a show with Mister Illusion, we know the kinds of questions to ask in order to provide entertainment which will satisfy. Let us know as much as you can about your needs. Mister Illusion (Charlie Fass) and his wife Barb have years of experience putting together programs that are "tailor made" to your needs.
We do not believe in presenting ourselves as individuals with any kind of supernatural powers since we believe that this is not the right thing to do. Years ago we changed our name from Mister Magic to Mister Illusion (Mr. Illusion) to reflect that belief. Sometimes people search for us using the abbreviation Mr. Illusion, but for years we have spelled out the name mister instead of using Mr. Illusion. We think it looks better too.
We have enough props and routines to be capable fo putting together numerous 20 minute, 30 minute, 45 minute, 60 minute or longer shows as needed without duplication! In other words, when you see us do a performance today, the show you see tomorrow will be totally different. This is the case for any of our Mister Illusion programs.
