THE AMAZING MAX to Return for Off-Broadway Encore Next Month

By:
The Amazing Max, the "awesome and hilarious live magic show for the whole family" (PBS Kids) starring magician Max Darwin (aka "The Amazing Max") which delighted audiences all winter will welcome the much anticipated return of spring with five (5) encore performances beginning April 6th (through April 11) at an all new venue - the McGinn/Cazale Theatre (2162 Broadway @ 76th Street).

The Amazing Max is a magic show with a mind of its own. Magician Max Darwin makes objects appear out of thin air, defies the laws of physics, and performs miracles inches from spectators' faces. The props onstage seem intent on surprising even the magician himself.

This out-of-control show bursts with striking visual magic, comedy, and loads of audience participation. The Amazing Max selects all of his assistants at random from the audience, and each adds a unique element to the show.

"We are really looking forward to this week of shows at the McGinn/Cazale Theatre. It's a wonderful, intimate venue which allows Max to get up close and personal with the audience," says producer Christine Cox.

Tickets are $54.50 (Premium) and $29.50 - $39.50 (General Admission). Premium ticket holders will receive priority seating in the first three rows of the theatre - and children take home a magic trick! They can be purchased online at www.theamazingmax.com or by calling 866-811-4111 or 212-352-3101. The performance schedule is: Monday, April 6 through Saturday, April 11. All shows are at 1pm. (Please Note: There is no performance on Friday, April 10). For more information on The Amazing Max, visit www.TheAmazingMax.com.

About Max Darwin Max Darwin was born to perform. He began charming audiences at the young age of 5 months, traveling all over the United States alongside his parents who were professional street performers specializing in clowning, mime, juggling, and magic. Throughout the years, Max has emerged as one of the most sought-after magic artists in the country. He performs hundreds of shows a year with a client roster including such notable celebrities as Uma Thurman, Diana Ross, Chazz Palminteri, Ethan Hawke, Jeremy Sisto, Tommy Hilfiger and Hank Azaria. Currently, Max can be seen as a guest artist and magic consultant on Season 3 and 4 of "Brain Games," airing on the National Geographic Channel. His TV credits also include hosting the hit Nickelodeon show "Game Farm!" and a guest star on ABC's "Black Box." He has also appeared in various national TV commercials for products like Axe Body Spray, Verizon, Bank of America, and Coca-Cola. He also released his first instructional magic video, "Magic in Minutes," where Max teaches kids ages 5 & up how to fill their everyday lives with wonder and perform magic with ordinary objects found right in their own home.
