CRITIC'S CHOICE:
"I went to this show ready to skewer a
19th-century-style card trickster, magician
and charlatan on a bloody, barbed pen, but
came away hooked myself. Maven is amazing. In
the second act, he picked me out of the
audience, and without my saying a word, told
me that within the past 3 years I had been to
a remote village in Fiji, and mentioned how
long I'd spent and what I'd done there --
with absolute accuracy.
"Amid the thuds
of audience members' jaws hitting the floor
throughout the evening, it's easy to overlook
Maven's seamless showmanship. He's a superb
storyteller who blends an arid, sophisticated
and slightly sinister wit into a performance
that's perfectly balanced on the ice line
between humorous and hair-raising."
L.A. Reader
"This guy can read you like an open book."
New York Daily News
"This man is dangerous."
