The Magic Box Theater
The Magic Box Theater – Magic Up Close and Live!
A live magic and comedy performance venue in South Pittsburg, Tennessee. It’s run by lifelong magician Jerry White (also known as “The Wonderful Wizard of Odd”), who has been performing magic since age 6. The theater offers interactive comedy magic shows that blend amazement, humor, and audience participation.
Key Features:
- Family-friendly shows: Typically held on Saturdays at 2:00 PM and 5:00 PM, suitable for all ages with classic magic tricks, surprises, and entertaining bits.
- Adults-only performances: Evening comedy magic shows (often at 7:00 PM on select nights) with more mature humor.
- Focuses on close-up and interactive magic rather than large-scale illusions, creating personal, memorable experiences where audience members may have cards signed and “transported” to impossible places or participate directly.
The theater emphasizes fun, respect for the audience, and a sense of wonder, with Jerry White aiming to make every show entertaining and fooling while keeping things light-hearted (complete with quirky props like a giant earthworm or floating lips). It also hosts special events and is available for private bookings outside the theater.
It’s a charming addition to South Pittsburg’s downtown scene near restaurants and other local attractions.
