Hometown:

Raised by a vagabond troupe of renegade circus clowns after being found at a young age in the lost-and-found box at a Sheboygan Chuckie Cheese, Pizpor the magician spent his early days traveling the countryside and learning the 'tricks of the trade' from his adoptive father, Slug-the-Clown.

An award winning magician, and sole proprietor of "The Exhibition of Curious Demonstrations," Pizpor performs at festivals that fail to check his references.

The Pizpor Show is now mostly a solo act after an unfortunate freak accident during a show left 'Whizzer the Weak-Bladdered-Wonder-Bunny' in traction. Flip, The Bird, is slowly working his way into the act.

He holds post-graduate degrees in Dropping Things and Tripping.

UNEDITED TESTIMONIALS

"I liked everything about his show except the magic, the jokes, and the part where he speaks. Other than that I would say I liked his show about as much as my recent root canal. The root canal didn't hurt as much however." Chad McVey - Big Shot Head Haucho, Wisconsin Renaissance Festival

"I've heard the Pizpor show is such a great magic act that I didn't want to ruin the illusion by actually watching him perform." :) Lou

"Pizpoor has gained a faithful following of elite cultists...he is kind of like the Rocky Horror Picture Show of Ren Faires!" Mary S. Wisconsin Ren Faire

"I'd rather give birth to an anvil than sit through that again." Nancy A. (MY WIFE for dogs sake!)

"No lie - I've seen that show 23 times now and I am absolutley convinced that it's never going to get any better." Doug S. Big Shot Marketing Director.

"I laughed so hard, I wish I would have worn my diapers."
Bob M., 2006 Wisconsin Renaissance Festival.

"WELL!! I DON'T KNOW WHAT SHOW BOB M. SAW, BUT IT MUST HAVE BEEN SOMETHING OTHER THAN THE ONE I WAS AT!! WHAT A BUNCH OF CRAP MAGIC TRICKS!! Mary S. 2006 Wisonsin Renaissance Festival.

"It was alright" Doug, just walking by.

"Actually, to be honest, I've seen worse magic shows by guys that claim to be professionals. But this guy manages to take bad to a new level." Anne Z., Corporate America Retreat.

"It was kind of like watching a kitten trying to cross a busy freeway. You can't stop watching and rooting for him to make it, but you just know it's going to turn out bad." Andy B., 2007 Sioux Falls Renaissance Festival

"For whatever reason, I saw that stupid show 3 times. AND NO! It wasn't just because it was in a bar! Don't believe those people, it was actually pretty fun. It makes for a good drinking game - every time he screws up - everyone take a drink." Susan D., 2007 Street Fest - Minneapolis

"It's more or less the Carl Ballentine of 400 years ago." John H., 2006 Big Company Office Holiday Party.

2005 Magician of the Year - IBM Ring 19

The Pizpor Magician presents;
The Exhibition of Curious Demonstrations

Mysteries beyond the realm of normal earth or sky.

Good seats go fast and the standard admission price of 5 pence is sometimes waived for patrons seated before the end of the show.

A character of Singular Capabilities, Handsome Visage, and a Wry Personal Demeanor capable of thawing the frostiest embankments of the Scottish county-side, Pizpor is a world traveler and collector of oddities which are presented here as the:

Exhibition of Curious Demonstrations.

Presented for amusement purposes only, these illusions have been eminently successful and recreated by many for display on a world-wide basis. The extent of which any or all spectacle may have been witnessed by Royalty, or Persons of Stature is incalculable, but now all good persons in attendance may lay witness to an event which will thankfully be a once in a life-time occurrence.

A show which displays phenomena that even science and scholars have difficulty explaining, spectators will be convinced that they have witnessed could best be explained as magic. The most notable feature of this presentation is the entire absence of un-gimmicked apparatus. Depending entirely on the nimbleness of his fingers and hidden mechanisms of modern science, Pizpor will do more with his bare hands than any and all other side-show magicians are capable of doing with their tinsel trappings and half a dozen confederates.

Be advised that during this short exhibition, if time permits, in addition to a choice selection of Curious Demonstrations and Wonderful Illusions made so celebrated by Pizpor, you may also behold new Novelties known as "The Bendable Rope," "Sawing a Board in Half," or "The Amazing Sinking Rock."

A 5 pound reward is offered at all shows for the first person offering proof that Pizpor is not real.

The Pizpor Show - Lower your expectations!

Not just another magic show - there are already plenty of those.
Daring to be different.
