David Parr is…well, a bit of an enigma in our world today. He took the rather circuitous path to eventually find his own way to happiness. If this sounds like an existential existence, then you’d be right. Like many of us, David has tried many paths, including comedy clubs and magic, before he settled on being a Bizarre Magician. His thoughts on the subject and how he sees this area of our art and how he got there is the subject of our conversation.
As a Theater Major in school, he has always favored the dramatic and storytelling side of performing. Along the way, he blazed a trail for others to follow when magic was not considered a “theatrical art” but relegated to children’s birthday parties. He has learned how to find theaters and convince them to engage and partner with him for successful magic performances that tell stories.
The first part of this week’s podcast has David talking about theaters and how to find them and get management to partner with you. In the second part of this chat, he talks about developing his “Cabinet of Curiosities” and why Bizarre Magic impacts your audience with its dramatic storytelling.
