Fowler and Company invites you to an evening of men, music, and magic with THE MAGIC FACTORY. It's a slice of Las Vegas in Bucktown, complete with lights, illusions, and dancing studs! Featuring classics of magic and dangerous feats, Wesley Fowler will challenge the laws of physics and what is believed impossible in THE MAGIC FACTORY on Saturday, December 1st at 7PM for one night only. Tickets are only $10 and are available at www.gorillatango.com or by calling 773-598-4549.

Wesley Fowler is an award winning magician and illusionist. In 2009, he was a finalist in "Gays Got Talent" in Chicago. He has been featured in "Miss Foozie's Variety Show," Lakeshore Theater, and Chicago's famous Navy Pier.

"One of the best aspects of Chicago is the night life," he says, "and I noticed a lack of magicians in many variety shows and cabarets I saw. This helped inspire me to introduce stage magic to various theaters and businesses that may not have otherwise considered it." Wesley is very excited to have Aaron Dalla Villa as his director and choreographer.

Aaron Dalla Villa is a native of Norfolk, VA. Upon graduation from the Governor's School for the Arts, Aaron received a full scholarship to the prestigious Tisch School of the Arts at New York University. Unable to find a cosigner for his room and board dues, Aaron moved out to dance with Nashville Ballet, and became financially independent at the age of 18. After leaving Nashville, he decided to further pursue his dance career with contemporary companies, and moved to Chicago. Aaron is also a professional actor with the "Family Shoe Players," and will be performing in the revival of "Dinner with the Family" this November at the Blue Star Bistro and Wine Bar. Recently, Aaron had the privilege to be selected as one the TOP 40 MEN for Oxygen Network's "The Glee Project," Season 2! Aaron likes having a lot on his plate, and enjoys modeling on the side, as well. This ambitious young man is very excited to see where his passions and talents take him.

THE MAGIC FACTORY also features the talents of JorDan Dale, Rohit Lal, and Robert McDonough.

It lasts for one hour and tickets are only $10. Order your tickets today before they vanish!
