Chris Funk: The Wonderist, Redefining Wonder
2024-04-07 16:00 - 17:30 | The Berman Center For The Performing Arts 6600 W Maple Rd, West Bloomfield Township
Chris Funk’s REDEFINING WONDER is an engaging and visceral multimedia
experience that has
audiences talking and scratching their heads for years to come.
Finally, a MAGIC SHOW WITH LIVE MUSIC!
Chris has pioneered the use of instruments like the violin, guitar, flute and
more into his illusions.
His parents wanted him to be a musician, but he wanted to be a magician. Chris
tells his story on how he integrated his love for music and magic in a show
unlike any other. Whether it’s a violin concerto to a magical dancing sheet of
music to impossibly suspending various instruments on stage, his show is in a
league of its own. The livefeed camera and interactive videos bring audiences
up onstage and
into the action, delivering a show that family audiences can call their own.
From NBC’s America’s Got Talent, CW’s Penn & Teller: Fool Us &
Masters of Illusion, FOX’s Hell’s
Kitchen and Syfy’s Wizard Wars, his unique approach to
magic has garnered him performances at
Las Vegas’ Planet Hollywood, Mandalay Bay, Rio, and Tropicana casinos as well
as residencies at
Disney. In addition to his own touring, Chris has starred in major touring
magic productions Masters of Illusion LIVE. Chris’ show has garnered
standing ovations and a reputation for excellence.
“BEST MAGICIAN we’ve had on the show so far! I’ve NEVER seen anything like
that!”
– SIMON COWELL, AMERICA’S GOT TALENT
“ There’s a WILDNESS and beauty to Chris Funk’s daft and funny presence that
we – and the audiences we’ve seen him with – find IRRESISTIBLE.”
– PENN & TELLER
