This Year’s Program Leaders
John Cassidy
John Cassidy’s journey into the world of magic began with a fascination for the impossible. As a young magician, he quickly realized that his true passion lay not only in the tricks themselves but in the art of entertaining people. His performances have always been infused with a natural sense of humor and charm that makes him stand out in the world of magic. From his very first performance, John captivated audiences with his comedic timing, clever wit, and ability to turn even the simplest magic trick into a hilarious, unforgettable moment. He learned that magic wasn’t just about the illusion; it was about creating a connection with the audience, making them laugh, and leaving them in awe all at the same time.
Stephen Caruso
Stephen Caruso is a dynamic entertainer with skills for days. He has been voted Pennsylvania’s Funniest Comic and performed his variety show for Flava Flav. He has also headlined on Royal Caribbean, Holland America, and at Sandals Resorts. Stephen is a big fan of throwing things, so in addition to performing one of the most sought-after variety shows on the East Coast, Stephen also owns and operates a mobile axe-throwing service. When Stephen is not throwing things up in the air, you can probably find him throwing things at a wall in front of him.
