THE MAGIC OF ILLUSIONIST DAVID GARRITY
Highlights from the “Magic & Beyond” performance may include hilarious stunts of apparent mind reading,an incredible illusion where a table mysteriously floats around the stage and out into the audience, “dangerous” stunts, a beautiful and artistic illusion involving ordinary Hula Hoops that perform extraordinary magic and a hilarious Houdini-style “Escape Challenge.” David Garrity uses visual magic and illusions combined with music, pantomime, situation comedy and audience participation to entertain audiences of all ages and backgrounds. David performs over 400 shows annually around the U.S.A. and internationally. David’s show has been seen at theaters, theme parks, colleges, fairs, corporate functions and countless other events. Recently, David’s show “Magic & Beyond” has been seen at the Tropicana Casino in Atlantic City, NJ; the National Theater in Washington, DC; Silja Cruise Lines in Sweden; and a tour of exclusive all-inclusive resorts along the Yucatan Peninsula on the Mayan Riviera in Mexico. In 1991, David formed his own production company, Entertainment Magic. Since then, Entertainment Magic has been responsible for creating entertainment and productions for some of the largest companies and events in the United States and internationally.
