A live stage band will sweep us off our feet playing all-original and traditional tunes lead by Los Angeles musician, Sophie Pipia. Audiences will enjoy all kinds of groovy tunes; from jazz to bluegrass, swing to folk, and everything in between.

Expect to be swept away with laughter, illusion, and merriment headed up by master of ceremonies, Phina Pipia. Youll leave this evening smiling from head to toe, and most importantly, thinking to yourself, howd they do that?

Vanishing Act was inspired in 2022, when professional magician Joey Pipia was diagnosed with Huntingtons Disease, a rare, inherited neurological condition for which scientists have not yet found a cure. The show is a chance to celebrate the joy of finding the wow! especially in lifes most challenging moments.

Magic and art (and the magic of art) have been the tools my family has used to get through a very challenging few years says Joey Pipias daughter, performer Phina Pipia, creating art together is the best way we have of expressing joy and love. This show is a chance to celebrate that.

All proceeds from Vanishing Act will go to the Huntingtons Disease Society of America, which is continuing to lead research to find a treatment for the disease.
