Discography
Mark Bennick
From the first moment you see this 23 year old, 6'6" Magician, and watch his mastery of the Art of Illusions, you won't take your eyes off the stage. If you blink he will make someone or something disappear, turn your head and his lovely assistant will be transported right next to you. Where his show is a family operation. Mark loves wowing his audience with non stop magic and he also has a great sense of humor with quick wit.Mark has the good fortune of having some of the finest performing rooms right in his backyard.
"Showtime at the Apollo" spotted him at The Orleans Hotel & Casino.
The "Magic Castle" in Hollywood spotted him at the Paris Hotel & Casino
Having performed all over Las Vegas:
Mirage Hotel & Casino Monte Carlo Hotel & Casino Paris Hotel & CasinoStardust Hotel & Casino
Just to name a few. Many are surprised to discover that Mark was the youngest showroom illusionist in Las Vegas.
Las Vegas Leisure Guide says Mark brings back fond memories of a young David Copperfield.
Sometimes the usual trappings are the best. People love the Double Spiker; its 16 razor sharp swords penetrating a box and the assistant, but its how you execute the illusion... and is the audience having fun? Thats what I care about.
states Mark.
Wise beyond his years
.hes an old magicians soul in a young body. Its all about the magical possibilities. Bennick is so far ahead of the game at 23, it boggles the mind to think of the future possibilities and new exciting moments on TV waiting ahead for this young man. For right now, his successful appearances on Showtime at the Apollo and The Magic Castle is just the beginning.
