Sunday Family Magic Matinee with Myster AJ

Collaboraction Theatre Company will offer a sneak peek at its new home in Humboldt Park with Sunday Family Magic Matinee with The Magical Myster AJ, one of the greatest family magicians Chicago has ever seen. 

Every Sunday, November 30 through December 28 (except December 14), families are invited to step inside Collaboraction's new space in the Kimball Arts Center, 1757 N. Kimball Ave. in Humboldt Park, to enjoy The Magical Myster AJ’s interactive, hour-long performance. Get set for a fast-paced flurry of magic, circus, gut busting laughs, and absurdity, guaranteed to enchant kids aged 4-10. Tada! It’s funny for adults, too.

Sacco, named “Best Magician in Chicago” by the Chicago Reader three years in a row, has been entertaining crowds since his first shows in nursing homes at the tender age of nine. He honed his skills doing magic at restaurants during his teen years. Today, Sacco has performed in 20 different countries, he entertains at trade shows, corporate events and weddings, and is one of the OG members of the famed Chicago Magic Lounge. While other magicians might have cut out the children's magic by now, Sacco is a popular performer on children's stages as well. He doesn’t use live animals, nor does he pretend to be all powerful. Rather, Sacco’s approach is to empower his young audiences to help him get through his show, by any silly means necessary. He loves the challenge of entertaining the increasingly knowledgeable youth, forging the next generation of magic fans.

“AJ has performed with Collaboraction at the Collaboraction Tent at Kidzapalooza for the last seven years and we are excited to welcome and grow AJ’s family magic in our new space," said Collaboraction Artistic Director Anthony Moseley.
