Mike
Caveney
A performance by Mike Caveney is unique. Each of his original
routines is perfectly suited to his dry comedic wit. He doesn't
tell jokes but you won't stop laughing and when something amazing
happens, it isn't just a trick, it's a miracle. Mike is a member
of the most prestigious group of magicians in the world, The
Inner Magic Circle of London, England. On ten different occasions
Mike has been nominated as STAGE MAGICIAN OF THE YEAR by the
famous Magic Castle in Hollywood. His talents have taken him
from Japan to Russia, from Monte Carlo to Borneo, Australia,
China, throughout Europe and most of the 50 States. On television,
Mike was named one of the NEW VAUDEVILLIANS and the Hollywood
Reporter described him as, "...one of the funniest magicians
in America." Mike has performed on the legendary Orient
Express, at the World Congress of Magic in Japan, the Sydney
Arts Festival in Australia, the world famous London Palladium
and was featured on A&E's Story of Magic and NBC's The World's
Greatest Magic special.

Tina
Lenert
The arts of Mime and Magic are universally appealing, crossing
all barriers of language and age. If anyone can serve as an
example, it is Tina Lenert. She has combined silent comedy
with a touch of magic to produce a most unusual and enchanting
act entitled, "Maid in Heaven," where a very sad
and frumpy cleaning lady is magically transformed and finds
happiness.
More recently she has created "Simply Magic," and
artful stage piece that explores the beauty of magic through
the use of a scarf and two rings.
She is a regular performer and life member of Hollywood's
Magic Castle, where she was voted Stage Magician of the Year.
For many years Tina has been touring Europe extensively, appearing
on television and in major theatres including Berlin's Wintergarten,
the London Palladium and a performance for the Royal Family
in Monte Carlo.
In the United States she has appeared at Harrah's Reno and
Atlantic City, Caesars Palace in Las Vegas as well as being
featured on the Disney Channel, Nickelodeon and CBS and NBC
specials.
And as the song implies, "Fairy tales can come true,"
Tina lives in Pasadena where she shares her craftsman dreamhouse
with her husband, magician Mike Caveney.

Asi
Wind
He is globally hailed by magicians as being one of the few
performers in the world to constantly innovate, develop, and
perform entirely original material. Indeed, when a magician
wants to be fooled, he attends Asi's show. No surprise, then,
that a committee of his peers recently presented him with
the International Merlin Award for "Most Innovate Show"
- an award previously given to David Copperfield, Criss Angel,
and Penn & Teller.
In
addition to being the headliner at New York's longest-running
magic show, and the performer of choice at the city's most
upscale private events, Asi is frequently asked to invent
and design ideas for other magicians worldwide. He is currently
one of the main advisors for David Blaine's upcoming television
special - a project that, for now, remains secret.

Jade
The exotic allure of Jade's magic stems from her Chinese heritage
and her childhood on the Indonesian island of Sumatra. Jade
took the male-dominated world of magic by storm in 1990, when
she won first place in the International Brotherhood of Magicians'
World Magic Competition. More importantly, a panel of celebrity
judges honored her with the organization's coveted Gold Medal
of Magic, a prize awarded only a handful of times in the competition's
20-year history. To date, she remains the sole woman to receive
this honor.
Don’t miss the Beauty of magic, Jade, performing at Magic
At the Beach in the cabaret and Champions of Magic Show!
