From start to finish, Mario displays constant enthusiasm and has an amazing ability to hype up kids while still keeping them in their seats and completely engaged with his show.

With plenty of audience participation, kids are told that volunteers need to be sitting in their seats, paying attention, and clapping the loudest. Everyone wants to go up on stage, so this is a fantastic method of crowd control!

Mario's from New York and has appeared on Sesame Street and toured with magician David Blaine. His credentials are impressive, and he more than lives up to his reputation as the world’s best children’s magician. His clever, home made contraptions delight and amaze, his sleight of hand is flawless, and the audience (both kids and adults) absolutely lap it up.

Mario is endlessly positive, and weaves messages of doing what you love, using what you have, and having fun in all of his performances. He teaches the audience about famous scientists, inventors and artists, and explains the impact of what an encouraging teacher can have on a person’s future.

Mario’s show will leave you giddy with excitement, feeling upbeat, and wondering how on earth he constructed and managed to do everything he did on stage!
