Misfortune: Salem's Parlor Magic Experience

A close-up magic show where the audience takes their fates in their hands. Are you feeling lucky? Misfortune is an hour-long theatrical magic show conjured by magician Evan Northrup. Set in Salem, Massachusetts, it walks the eerie line between superstition and luck — blending immersive storytelling with astonishing sleight-of-hand. It is mysterious, a little spooky, and always magical and fun. Seating is kept intentionally small, so the wonder happens close enough to touch. While there’s nothing inappropriate for younger audience members, this show has been designed for people over 13 years old. <a href="https://youtu.be/ObLxzI7Jx1c">Teaser Video: Here</a> WHAT PEOPLE SAY: "Your show was AMAZING! We had so much fun and were mystified. Can't wait for you to be back in Salem to be dazzled once again." Kim Driscoll, Lieutenant Governor of Massachusetts "We had a certain expectation for a magician. Not only did you deliver, you went above and beyond. You brought a life to the show that was felt by all." Don MacLean, Regional VP of Operations, Kings Dining and Entertainment "I am now a firm believer that magic happens!" B﻿oston Teachers Union "Exquisitely responsive to the audience in front of you. You are a wonderful storyteller as well as a magician, drawing everyone in so we were laughing one moment, and in the next we were so rapt you could hear a pin drop."

heist

Magicians spend years practicing moves so that you fail to notice the obvious. That is why a&nbsp;magician would make the perfect mastermind for a heist. Who needs a grifter, a safe cracker, or a get-away driver when you have a magic on your side. Evan can read you. He can control your actions and manipulate your decisions. Meet us in the mystery. This theatrical magic show features mind-reading, manipulation, expert card magic, all wrapped up in an exciting presentation where magic and art theft collide. Presented by magician Evan Northrup (soon to be featured on The CW's&nbsp;Penn &amp; Teller: Fool Us), the show runs 60 minutes and guests will have access to a cocktail hour on the Crane Estate grounds before the show begins. Recommended for ages 18+, though there's nothing inappropriate for younger audience members.
