Star of ‘Carbonaro Effect’ coming to Long Center

April 15, 2024

The Long Center, 111 N. Sixth St., is presenting comedian and illusionist Michael Carbonaro. The all ages show is April 25. Readers of Macaroni Kid can access discounted $25 tickets with the promo code 4PACK. Select the “pink seats” in the balcony at www.longpac.org

Families will recognize Michael Carbonaro from his hit show “The Carbonaro Effect.”  The popular show ran for 100 episodes on truTV. It currently airs on Max and in syndication worldwide. In this series, Michael performs inventive tricks on unsuspecting members of the public who are unaware that he is a magician. Jaws drop when he causes a car to disappear from under a security guard’s nose or makes alien crabs transform into kittens in a science lab. Whether posing as a coffee shop barista, museum curator, or seemingly unremarkable store clerk in the REAL world, Carbonaro's illusions – along with his absurd, matter-of-fact explanations – leave REAL people bewildered and families at home laughing out loud.

Now, he is bringing his illusions to live audiences, including the Long Center in Lafayette. Carbonaro's illusions – along with his absurd, matter-of-fact explanations – leave REAL people bewildered and families laughing out loud.
