The WYO Performing Arts & Education Center has announced December will be a magical month featuring two talented locals. John Rotellini and AJ Longhurst will present “Amazing Meets Extraordinary: The Magic Returns” at 7 p.m. Thursday, Dec. 8.
Rotellini and Longhurst bring their own magical experience to the stage, rooted in theater. The WYO Theater lists the performers as a WYO specialty.
According to the WYO, for Rotellini, a childhood love of magic paired with an eclectic collection of interests led him to a career in doing extraordinary things onstage. By combining sleight of hand magic and illusions with psychology and theatre, Rotellini has created live, interactive events that have wowed audiences around the world.
Longhurst, also known as The Amazing AJ! also found an interest in magic at a young age, when he had his first magical experience watching a trick close-up. Longhurst has performed magic professionally for more than 12 years and has been a professional actor for more than 22 years. Six years ago, Longhurst started a new magical adventure through teaching. At AJ’s Magic Academy, Longhurst weaves important communication and life skills into every magic lesson, teaching students magic is a reality that can change a life.
The WYO Theater invites the public this December when Longhurst and Rotellini join forces to prove that magic is real.
“Amazing Meets Extraordinary: The Magic Returns” is sponsored by the WYO’s Major Season Sponsors along with McDonalds, Sheridan EyeCare Center and Frank & Georgia Boley.
