WONDERSHOW Set For Public Arts  ImageWonders never cease. Especially at Public Arts, the Lower East Side's chic performance space nestled within Ian Schrager's Public Hotel. Since opening last summer, the venue has attracted an eclectic base of night-life aficionados by featuring a magically diverse slate of performers. Recent guests have been treated to the likes of Riz MC, Patti Smith, Lena Hall and A$AP Rocky.

But a different brand of magic comes to the stage this Wednesday at 8pm, when audiences will have a chance to witness the modern vaudeville experience known as WONDERSHOW.

Created by magician Patrick Terry, WONDERSHOW has been called a "triumph of the variety arts" (AXS) as well as "professional mind f*ckery by the most skilled performers in the business" (TimeOutNY) and the upcoming performance promises to be another uniquely thrilling spectacle. Eric Walton, a connoisseur of New York's cabaret scene, returns as master of ceremonies alongside a stellar cast including acclaimed juggler Michael Karas and magician Alexander Boyce, who recently appeared on The Today Show.

The October 10th event will also showcase stunning choreography from Jenny Rocha & Her Painted Ladies, NYC's premier dance troupe who recently won 'Most Innovative' at The Burlesque Hall of Fame, plus a special appearance from standup comic Leah Bonnema, hailed as "consistently excellent" by The New York Times.

In addition to comedy, magic and burlesque, WONDERSHOW will also feature a headlining performance from Vinny DePonto, a renowned mind-reader who Buzzfeed describes as "engaging, suspenseful and totally charming." Mr. DePonto's incomparable skills have amazed audiences across the globe and while reviewing a recent performance, The NY Daily News declared "it is both delightful and terrifying to watch him work."

Reserve your seats now for this astonishing display of talent which TimeOut describes as "a wall-to-wall evening of jaw-dropping, side-splitting fun." Tickets start at just $30 and are available from the venue here.
