David Parr is an internationally acclaimed magician who has devoted his life to sharing the experience of mystery with audiences around the world. Magic fans will recognize David from his appearance on the hit TV show Penn & Teller: Fool Us. There, David’s magic was put to the ultimate test in front of the cameras, a live audience, millions of TV viewers, and two very savvy Las Vegas magicians. (Spoiler Alert…) David fooled their faces off and not only took home the coveted Fool Us trophy, but also won a guest spot in their live show at the Rio hotel in Las Vegas!
David created and costarred in Chicago’s longest-running weekly magic show, which was chosen by the Travel Channel as one of the top nine magic shows in the nation! (Because top-ten lists are so passé.) His show David Parr’s Cabinet of Curiosities recently completed a successful yearlong run. And his new show, Dark Magic, is set to premiere in April.
When David is not busy mystifying guests at corporate functions and private events, or performing at Hollywood’s prestigious Magic Castle, he devotes his time to theatrical endeavors. Around Halloween, David can often be found haunting atmospheric locations with shows such as Haunting History, a guided tour of the shadowy territory where history meets myth and folklore, or Visions of Poe, an interactive journey into the tales and poems of Edgar Allan Poe.
In the hidden world of magicians, David is best known for his theatrical performing style and for his writing and teaching skills. He has published several highly regarded books for magicians, been a technical consultant to many theatrical productions, given presentations at academic conferences, and provided guidance and instruction to magicians at lecture appearances across the United States and Canada. For a decade or so, he was a featured columnist, proofreader, and copy editor for the world’s top magic journal. His thought-provoking writings about the art of magic have also been featured in publications in Germany, France, Australia, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Sweden.

SUNDAY, SEPT. 29, 2019 from 2 – 5 pm at Theatre of Dreams in Castle Rock! Limited to 10 people. $60 Reservations MUST be made in advance. First come, first served.
Call (303) 660-6799 with your credit card to reserve your spot!
Here is a chance to benefit from David Parr’s experience as a theatrical actor and director, as well as a highly regarded writer, performer, and teacher of magic. David has written and co-written a number of well-received books on the art of magic, a popular series of articles about creativity, and he has produced some bestselling items in the magic marketplace. His winning routine on the TV show Penn & Teller: Fool Us is a prime example of David’s approach to magic: clear, direct, engaging, and with a lasting sense of mystery.
Don’t miss this opportunity to combine our creative resources and get solid results. By the end of the Magic Catalyst session, you’ll have David’s best advice and direction, the advice and encouragement of other magicians, and clear, tangible improvements to your magic. There’s only one rule for this workshop: if you attend, you’re expected to participate, so be ready to work and contribute!
What to bring:
- An untested or unfinished piece of magic that you’d like to work on
- A pen or pencil
- A stack of 3″ x 5″ index cards, usually sold in packs of 100, which will be plenty
- An open mind and a creative spirit
What not to bring:
- A finished, favorite time-tested routine
- An entire twenty-minute act
- A closed mind or judgey attitude
During this workshop, it’s okay to mess up and ask for a do-over. It’s okay to read from your printed script. No one is expecting a polished performance. The goal is to take material that is unfinished and, by working together, move it down the path toward becoming a finished piece of magic — to make new discoveries and have fun in the process!
Testimonials:
One of the best workshop investments I’ve ever made was the Magic Catalyst workshop by David Parr. David is one of those rare individuals who has a broad spectrum of knowledge not only in the art of magic, but in stagecraft, script writing, theatrical staging and direction. The process he has created will work for any skill level, amateur and professional alike. Bring an open mind and a willingness to share. This is a real opportunity to take your show to the next level and help others do the same!
– Joseph Daniels, The Dark Cabaret
David is an artist. His workshop is a must-attend class for any entertainer, either with decades of experience or just getting into performance. The group will collectively take the diamond-in-the-rough idea you might have, cut it, brush it off and polish it into something that will shine like a star!
– Vince Wilson
David’s workshop is something that the magic world needs: a place where one can take something, without fear of failure, and make it better. When a performer is stuck somewhere, and something just isn’t working, it’s imperative to get outside eyes on the project in order to gain a new perspective, and this workshop delivers that in droves. Easily one of the top five most valuable experiences I’ve had while developing material.
– Christopher Strange
David set an awesome tone of relaxed collaboration for the workshop. He is a very thoughtful facilitator and performer, and that helped everyone. The respectfulness and thoughtfulness at the workshop was truly refreshing. It helped me to feel much more powerful and confident onstage, and I have kept that sense of confidence after I left the conference. I highly recommend this as a super fun and engaging workshop where everyone gets to participate in creating a unique and valuable experience.

World Famous Magician, Peter Samelson!
Peter Samelson does sophisticated, intelligent theatrical magic where the mystery is kept in focus, and the theatrical elements add emotion and relevance rather than detract from the magic.
Peter Samelson’s show business credits are as numerous as the raves he receives from every audience for whom he performs. The New York Times calls him “a soft-spoken conceptualist of sorcery.” ”MAGIC is a crime because it breaks the laws of nature,” the illusionist Peter Samelson teasingly suggests near the beginning of his one-man show, ”The Magician.”
