create magical moments in people’s lives. Mario says "if
I can help people forget their worries of their day to
day whilst they are watching my magic show, and make
them laugh and smile – then my magic has just begun."
Mario first started performing over 20 years
ago. He is the founder of the School of Busking in
Wales and is part of the teaching faculty of the Magic
and Mystery School in Las Vegas where he teaches and
trains each year. He has taught and trained students
both locally and from around the world and lectured all
over the UK, Italy and Switzerland.
The
Magic of Mario Morris is an art and craft that
has being developed from years of street performing into
an outstanding international indoor performer drawing
the audience into a magical world of endless
possibilities. Time stands still as Mario weaves his
magic, outstanding sleight of hand together with high
impact effects.
Mario works and travels with his wife and magic partner
Veronica - also know as Lady Vee. Veronica is a balloon
artist, storyteller and magicians assistant as well as
Mario's manager. Veronica is from Edinburgh, Scotland
and has being performing for over 7 years and has
travelled all over the world with Mario bringing color
and fun through her balloon modeling and transports both
adults and children into another world with her stories.
Local performer Sean Doolan will be opening the
show for Mario. Sean says - 'I was born to perform I
just didn’t realize it until age 47!" For some men
their midlife crisis comes in the form of fast cars and
loose women. For Sean it was magic! Come see Sean open
for Mario & Veronica as he amazes amuses and confuses
you.
