Mario "the Magician" Marchese is an artist and inventor who creates his own props. He is known for his dedication to the Maker Movement and STEAM/STEM initiatives and his clever and refreshing integration of DIY electronics and robotics into his performance.
Despite his use of cutting-edge technology, he never sacrifices the old-school slapstick vibe that audiences love. Mario has recently made appearances on "Sesame Street," NBCUniversal’s "Sprout" Channel, and live at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, World Maker Faire New York, the American Museum of Natural History, and more.
He is also the subject of award-winning indie documentary film, "Building Magic," which is currently making its rounds at film festivals. For more information, visit www.mariothemagician.com.
