SOPAC Staff Pick-Vitaly: An Evening of Wonders

Combining breathtaking visuals with his captivating style, Master Illusionist Vitaly takes audiences on an interactive and magical theatrical experience in his show An Evening of Wonders.  Perfect for the whole family, Vitaly blends art and illusion to illustrate the story of his transformation from a boy with a dream to a man with a vision of the world in which the rules of reality do not exist.  In this world, paintings spring to life, photographs become mini-movies, and audience members see their faces vanish from their own driver’s licenses.  Even time reverses as bare broken branches visibly repair and renew themselves with the green leaves of spring.

Vitaly invented and designed every illusion in this surprisingly touching show—many of which touch on the tender topics of love, loss, and growing old.  Not only will the audience witness elegant renderings of the impossible, but they will be charmed by Vitaly’s engaging personality.  After discovering magic when he was 14 years old, Vitaly spent years entertaining his friends and family.  Eventually, he would abandon a career in engineering to focus on rebuilding people’s childlike sense of wonder and bridging the gap between dreams and reality.
