about mario
Mario’s late teens and early twenties were spent traveling around the country, hitch-hiking, exploring, building friendships, building a treehouse, herding sheep, street performing, and so much more. Eventually, he found himself back in his hometown in New York and decided to pursue his greatest passion, magic, professionally. At first it was only a weekend gig, and Mario’s weekdays were spent as a special education teacher aide for an inspiring group of kids at Putnam/Northern Westchester BOCES. Eventually, four years ago, the magic business became a full-time endeavor. Mario and his wife, Katie, are proud and committed to their vision of providing undyingly positive, uplifting, inventive, imaginative, and utterly unique entertainment for the young and young-at-heart. Mario & Katie were fortunate to have the opportunity to publish a children’s magic card trick book for Barnes & Noble in 2008. And several of Mario’s handcrafted magic creations are currently featured at the world-renowned Tannen’s Magic Store. In addition to being a magician, Mario is also a visual artist, and his interactive artwork can be seen at www.mariomarchese.com.http://www.tannens.com/shop/cart.php?m=product_list&c=399http://www.mariomarchese.comshapeimage_2_link_0shapeimage_2_link_1
