Joan Dukore ♦ Elegant Magic at Smoke & Mirrors Theater

Joan DuKore has performed from Japan to Dubai, and from LA to NY, most notably at Caesar’s Palace, Hollywood’s famed Magic Castle, and Chicago’s Magic Lounge.

Joan was born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii where she began her performing career as a ballet dancer. Loving playing cards first got her started in her world of magic. Upon moving to Las Vegas, Nevada, she got a job at Caesar's Magical Empire, the premier venue for magic in Las Vegas at the time. During this time she not only made appearances at various corporate events, but also was one of the strolling performers for Celine Dion's vow renewal reception.

Joan then went on to be one of the environmental performers at The Venetian Hotel & Casino. She enchanted audiences both with strolling and parlour magic there, in addition to taking breaks for touring. She toured Japan, Dubai, Cancun and Canada before coming home to Las Vegas. In Japan she not only performed her own solo show, but did it in Japanese, in which she is conversational.

Joan has not just performed on the stage, she has been seen on TLC performing magic for their Urban Legend show and on HGTV doing the intro and outros for House Hunters Las Vegas Week. And has graced the covers of The Linking Ring and Genii Magazine.

She is excited to bring her award-winning magic act back to the Smoke and Mirrors Magic Theater. Direct from Las Vegas, Joan’s delights audiences with elegance, magic, and some wry wit on the side. You may have seen her live show on your last trip to Las Vegas. Part card sharp, part princess she will have you gasping with laughter and astonishment.
