Mark Mitton (The Kennedy Center)

Mark Mitton

Mark Mitton, fascinated by the history of magic and vaudeville, travels the world seeking out unusual performance art, lecturing at magic conferences, and pursuing the study of magic theory. For five years he was the apprentice to legendary sleight-of-hand master and vaudevillian artist Slydini. He has studied Commedia dell’Arte in Italy, physical comedy with David Shiner, ancient street performing arts in Japan, and he is a member of the Spanish magic fraternity Escuela Mágica de Madrid. For the past fifteen years, he has been dazzling audiences with his unique comedy performances—incorporating unusual stunts and mind-boggling sleight-of-hand—at performance spaces in and around New York, corporate meetings and events, and even the Olympic Games.
