🪄Prepare to question everything.

For one night only, the Maury Young Theatre transforms into an evening of astonishing sleight of hand, impossible illusions, and laugh-out-loud comedy as three of Canada's most acclaimed magicians take the stage.

East Van legend Travis Bernhardt, once called the "hardest guy to follow in Vancouver" by comedian Dino Archie, has been touring his award-winning magic shows across Canada since 2008. When not performing, Travis mentors and creates material for other magicians, with his work appearing in performances on America's Got Talent and theatrical productions across Canada and the US. He also creates magic and trains actors for film and television, most recently for Disney's Descendants: Wicked Wonderland.

“The real deal... Literally amazing” — CBC Winnipeg on Travis 

Joining the lineup is Nayana Fielkov, a critically acclaimed performer whose distinctive blend of magic, clown, physical theatre, dance, and comedy has earned five-star reviews and captivated audiences across Canada. A co-creator of the multi-award-winning RAGMOP Theatre and a founding member of Vancouver's beloved Dusty Flowerpot Cabaret, Nayana brings a playful, genre-defying approach to the art of illusion.

“★★★★★ An extraordinary blend of mime and magic” — Global News on Nayana 

All the way from Montreal, Ben Bisaillon is a hot sleight-of-hand talent whose high-end technical skill and original moves have caught the attention of the global cardistry scene. They’ve travelled across Canada with their one-man magic shows Arts and Crafts for Grown-Ups and Something from Nothing.

“You just can't look away!” — Good News Theatre Reviews, Montreal on Ben 

Whether you're a lifelong fan of magic or simply looking for a memorable night out, this one-night-only performance promises incredible skill, unexpected comedy, and moments that will leave you wondering, "How did they do that?"
