Friday, November 8th

Doors 7PM | Show 8PM

Named by Entertainment Weekly as “a great magician”, Forbes as “a top modern magician”, Hidden
Remote as a “fan favorite…with charisma and an easy rapport with an audience”, and Digital Journal as
“the one to watch in magic in a show that is five out of five stars”, Michael Grandinetti is not your ordinary
magician.
With performances on national and international television, in stadiums, arenas, casinos, and theaters
around the country, with Oscar-winning composers and symphony orchestras, for NFL and NBA halftime
shows and major sporting events, for Fortune 500 companies, and even at The White House, Michael has
made a name for himself around the world as an extremely talented and innovative magician and illusionist.
Over the past 20 years, Michael has been driven to make magic contemporary and to give it a wide,
mainstream appeal. He has had starring roles on NBC’s “The World’s Most Dangerous Magic II”, five
seasons of The CW’s “Masters of Illusion” (also syndicated in over 100 countries worldwide), and POP’s
“Don’t Blink”, and his magic has been featured on the Emmy-nominated FOX series “Bones”, “The Today
Show”, “Access Hollywood”, “Entertainment Tonight”, “SportsCenter” and “The Bold and the Beautiful”.
Michael has also been featured in Parade Magazine, Entertainment Weekly, AXS.com, Hidden Remote,
Starpulse, The Huffington Post, Young Hollywood, and The Beverly Hills Times Magazine. Michael was
also a featured guest on CNBC’s “Make It”, a series about people who have achieved success in
challenging industries, as well as on the cover of TV Times magazine, released nationally in newspapers
across the U.S.
Possessing a true passion for amazing live audiences, Michael has performed at a wide range of venues
nationwide, including Heinz Hall with renowned composer Marvin Hamlisch and the Pittsburgh Symphony
Orchestra, casinos including Harrah’s Resort and Casino in Atlantic City, Three Rivers Casino Resort,
Saratoga Casino, Spirit Lake Casino, Casino Rama, and Shooting Star Casino, theaters and arenas
including Cerritos Center for the Performing Arts (Los Angeles, CA), Durham Performing Arts Center
(Durham, NC), A.J. Palumbo Center (Pittsburgh, PA), Paramount Theater (Huntington, NY), Symphony Hall
(Phoenix, AZ), and Bank of America Stadium (Charlotte, NC) surrounded by 60,000 people for the Carolina
Panthers Halftime Show. Michael has also performed custom presentations for major corporations
including Google, Southwest Airlines, Ernst & Young, The American Marketing Association, Mazda, Rite-
Aid, Harley Davidson, and many more.
In addition, Michael was honored to be the first illusionist ever invited to perform in the National
Independence Day Parade in Washington DC. During this remarkable celebration of our country, Michael
levitated a girl high above one of the floats as it moved down Constitution Avenue, while a live audience of
250,000 people watched in amazement.
The Magic of Michael Grandinetti LIVE features breathtaking wonders from Michael’s extraordinary career,
right before your very eyes. Legendary magic plots of levitation, teleportation, mind reading, and more are
reimagined for today's audiences, making them more visual, surprising, and even more astounding than
ever before. However, audiences don’t just watch the magic, they’re pulled into an interactive experience
where everyone in the theater becomes part of the magic!
By blurring the line between illusion and reality in a groundbreaking yet personable way, Michael Grandinetti
gives his audiences an engaging, entertaining, and one of a kind experience they’ll never forget.
