Murray Hill, “the hardest working middle-aged man in show business,’ is a singing, dancing, schticking throwback to the comedic entertainers of yesteryear. Mr. Hill, who's been known to stop mid-song to commandeer a drink or hit on a lovely lady, has been a Big Apple mainstay attracting top talent, packed houses and bold faced names in the audience from uptown class Ivana Trump to downtown cool Alan Cumming and Michael Musto, to the old school like Joan Rivers and John Waters. He's infamous for the spontaneous fun and party atmosphere of his on-stage antics and his unique brand of interactive humor and irrepressible schtick.

Stuart
Palm was born in a little town in Tampa Bay, Florida. His first
stab at a magical performance was after his Uncle, a member of the
International Brotherhood of Magicians, was showing him coin tricks.
Baffled, he began asking for pennies around the crowd and making
them vanish. It was his Grandmother who finally stumbled upon the
secret. She had thought his diaper needed changing and when she
finally wrestled it off of him found it clean, but filled with change.
Stuart came to understand the artist as a modern Shaman and refocused
his interest into performance and specifically magic. Stuart will
be performing magic tricks in the crowd. |
