Chris Funk brings his spectacular magic show with live music to the Shadbolt
REDEFINING WONDER showcases the awe-inspiring artist’s groundbreaking illusions that feature violin, guitar, flute, and more
Finally, a magic show with live music! Chris Funk’s REDEFINING WONDER is an engaging and visceral multimedia experience that has audiences talking and scratching their heads for years afterward.
The artist known as The Wonderist has pioneered the use of instruments like the violin, guitar, flute, and more into illusions.
His parents wanted him to be a musician, but he wanted to be a magician. Whether it’s a violin concerto to a magical dancing sheet of music to impossibly suspending various instruments on stage, his show is in a league of its own. The live-feed camera and interactive videos bring audiences up onstage and into the action, delivering a show that family audiences can call their own.
Funk has spent the last 15 years travelling the world, winning audiences over every step of the way.
America’s Got Talent’s Simon Cowell had this to say of the one-of-a-kind artist: “best magician we’ve had on the show so far! I’ve never seen anything like that!”
Legends Penn & Teller once said: There’s a wildness and beauty to Chris Funk’s daft and funny presence that we—and the audiences we’ve seen him with—find irresistible.”
Catch Chris Funk on Saturday, November 5 at 8 pm at Shadbolt Centre for the Arts’ James Cowan Theatre (6450 Deer Lake Avenue, Burnaby).
