Mat Franco - Magic Reinvented Nightly
Mat Franco, the first magician to win NBC’s America’s Got Talent, brings his captivating, hold-on-to-your-seat illusions to the heart of the Las Vegas Strip with his show at The LINQ Hotel & Casino.
Mat offers a fresh, fun, and feel-good twist on magic that defies all expectations. In a full-scale production built on brand-new, never-before-seen material, the 26-year-old magician delivers his most spectacular performance yet, but still keeps his love of getting up close with the crowd at the heart of every show. With his signature brand of breezy humor, Mat mixes his amazingly inventive and always stunning magic with crowd-guided improv to create a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that’s completely unique to each audience and entirely unforgettable.
A FRESH TAKE ON MAGIC
It’s called “Magic Reinvented Nightly” for good reason. Don’t expect the standard Vegas magic act – this is interactive magic that combines the old and new.
HOW’D HE DO THAT?
Acclaimed for his America’s Got Talent win and appearing on many top lists, Mat Franco continues to find ways to leave audiences awe-struck with effortless humor and stunning magic.
IMPROV MEETS ILLUSION
Mat Franco never puts on the same show twice. You may have your own part of the show, as he includes plenty of crowd-guided improv in his inventive magic acts.
Mat Franco takes an innovative approach to magic-making that’s driven by pure joy. Almost entirely self-taught, the 31-year-old Rhode Island native began staging his own shows before the age of 10 and quickly cultivated a performance style that highlighted his natural warmth and wit.
Following a triumphant victory on America’s Got Talent and his first-ever primetime TV special, Mat Franco’s Got Magic, Franco’s show, MAGIC REINVENTED NIGHTLY, is an improvisation-fueled stage production offering boundless fun and a stunning sense of thrill and wonder. Named “Best Show” by Las Vegas Weekly> and twice voted “Best Magic Show” in the Las Vegas Review-Journal’s Best of Las Vegas Awards, MAGIC REINVENTED NIGHTLY has continued to receive rave reviews from fans and critics alike, paving the way for the renaming of the LINQ Theater to The Mat Franco Theater in summer 2017.
With the aim of taking his audience on a “shared adventure,” the full-scale production allows Franco to execute his magic with a grander sense of spectacle than ever before—all while maintaining the easy intimacy that’s long been central to his performances.
“One of the most important things to me as a performer is really connecting with the audience, so it’s like we’re all just hanging out in a room together,” he says. “I love to change things up as I go and let the crowd guide what we’re doing. That way it keeps it fresh for me every night, and makes it so each show is special for everyone in the audience.”
Mat Franco’s interactive magic acts move at a frantic pace, with clever twists on classics and brand new creations that keep you awed.
