In some of his first live events outside of Las Vegas since the launch of Criss Angel BeLIEve at The Luxor, the #1 magician on the planet - Criss Angel - will be performing a limited exclusive engagement of his new production 'Criss Angel MINDFREAK LIVE! at the State Theatre in Easton on January 20th.

He will be performing 2 shows: 6 PM & 9:30 PM. Limited tickets are available but can be purchased at the State Theatre Box Office, by phone at 1-800-999-STATE (610-252-3132) or online at www.statetheatre.org. Due to intense effects, the show is recommended for ages 13 and up. The State Theatre performances are sponsored by ADAMS Outdoor and Spin Radio 107.1

The show is based on the most successful television magic show in history, 'MINDFREAK,' which is syndicated to over 90 countries, attracting in excess of 100 million viewers throughout each of its 6 seasons and 100+ mind-blowing episodes. Online views of Angel's clips have also amassed an incredible more than 250 million views on YouTube alone. Ticket holders to the exclusive MINDFREAK LIVE! theatrical magic concerts can expect to witness 90 minutes of the most spectacular original illusions ever performed - woven with a cast of multi-talented artists, original music, lighting, special effects and so much more - in this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

For over a decade, Criss Angel has dominated the world of magic as the biggest name on the planet. His visionary approach to the art escapes the confines of tradition and has given birth to a new breed of modern mysticism. From his role as star, creator, Executive Producer and Director of his hugely successful A&E television series Criss Angel MINDFREAK, to his spectacular live shown Criss Angel BeLIEve at the Luxor Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, and star of and creator of countless television specials, books, retail products, music CD's and more - Criss has redefined magic for the 21st century.

His acclaimed series MINDFREAK on A&E is the most successful magic show in television history, resulting in more hours of magic during prime time than any other magic show ever! It continues to be viewed regularly by more than 100 million viewers per season in over 90 countries. The broadcast of the live "Building Implosion" episode drew a crowd police estimated at 50,000 to the venue in Clearwater, Florida - the largest crowd for any magician, rivaling Houdini.

Angel has family ties to the Lehigh Valley, including cousin Billy Kounoupis, owner of Billy's Downtown Diners in Bethlehem and Allentown. Early in his career, he was mentored by Easton's Lou Reda and has been on the State Theatre stage in 1991 for a promotional photo shoot.
