Look for Pilou in the Cabaret and Champions of Magic Show!

Magic at the Beach is pleased to announce two more awesome acts that will be appearing at MATB2014. Those of you that have been watching our website are already aware of the incredible international talent we are bringing in and now we are asking that all of you join us in welcoming two talented Americans …

Eric Buss -
Although most would agree that his props are totally awesome, it’s Eric’s personality that wins audiences over. His high-energy, and hilarious act has been called, “Pure Art, Pure Madness!” It combines his crazy inventions and his high-octane sugar rush into a non-stop ride of mischief and magical gadgetry that most people could never imagine. Eric not only imagined it, he turned it into an award-winning act that he has performed around the world and on “The Late Show” with David Letterman. In fact, Letterman called his performance “Tremendous, sensational, beautiful and a real crowd pleaser,” and that was only 90 seconds of it! If he can impress Letterman, he must be good!

Tom Burgoon -
For over 20 years Tom has captivated audiences from coast to coast with his unique brand of comedy and magic. His performances for Scandinavian World Cruise Lines spanned an 8-year period during which he entertained over 2 million passengers! A creator of many magical effects for magicians, Tom is a renowned performer for trade shows and corporate clients the world over.
A regular performer at the Magic Castle in Hollywood, Tom has performed everywhere from comedy clubs and stage events in Las Vegas, Reno and L.A. to performing for President George W. Bush at the Inaugural Ball in Washington DC. Don't miss his comedy madness!

So now along with Pilou from France, Gaston from Germany and Woody Aragon of Spain, Tom Burgoon and Eric Buss will be joining us in beautiful Myrtle Beach, SC, USA, 16 – 18 January 2014.

MATB2014 is being held at the Ocean Dune Resort & Conference Center. Everything is all under one roof and all rooms for our guests are ocean front. Register before December 1st 2013 and save yourself some money (more to spend in the Dealer’s Room). All registered attendees will also receive a reserved ticket for the Champions of Magic show Saturday night at The Carolina Opry.

Timo Marc is the recipient of several international awards: He is the German Master of Magic and won the Grand Prix of Monte Carlo and got the Sarmoti Award from Siegfried & Roy in Las Vegas. "The Siegfried & Roy Sarmoti Award goes to the most creative and entertaining magician. He is the best for the future of magic... the award goes to Timo Marc!" - Siegfried & Roy.

You've seen magic on TV? Timo Marc does magic with a TV! Experience unbelievable illusions, when he wills the frontiers between screen and reality to disappear.
