Kids’ magician Amazing Max has a saying: If you enjoy his show, he’s the Amazing Max. If you don’t, he’s David Blaine!
But toddlers to grandparents usually exit “The Amazing Max and his Box of Interesting Things” with smiles on their faces, because that box of his is filled with family fun, and this month, Max comes to the Manhattan Movements and Art Center Theater.
Sure, he’s not a “mindfreak” like Criss Angel, and he doesn’t rock uber-defined pecs like the aforementioned Blaine (and he doesn’t wear a rainbow jumpsuit like Doug Henning!), but he’s got more than a few tricks that other illusionists can’t beat — namely, how to make the whole family feel like they’re part of the magic.
And Max’s magic is peppered with comedy that will have mom and dad laughing along with every trick.
“The Amazing Max and the Box of Interesting Things,” at the Manhattan Movement and Arts Center Theater [248 W. 60th St. between Amsterdam and West End avenues; (212) 239–6200]. Tickets are $29.50 ($49.50 VIP seating) for performances on Feb. 4, 11 and 18; 4:30 pm. For info visit www.theamazingmaxlive.com.
