Maritess presents Theory of Evolution

THIS PRODUCTION HAS BEEN CANCELLED.

Theory of Evolution is the memoir of Maritess, one of the few female magicians in history. Join Maritess as she takes you through her evolution as a suicidal Filipina-American teen in the Chicago suburbs to an internationally award-winning female magician. She does this with the unlikely help of her 1950’s thinking mentor, legendary Las Vegas magician Gary Darwin. Watch her tell her story through a combination of drama, illusion, and theater.

Rated PG 13, some adult themes.

“With her street-smart stage presence, dazzling illusions, and great sense of humor, Maritess redefines magic for a hip new multicultural age.” — David Henry Hwang, Tony Award winning playwright of M. Butterfly

“Maritess…presents sophisticated magic with an edge” — New York Newsday
