Michael Kent: Comedian & Magician 

Come have a few laughs and be entertained by comedian and magician Michael Kent.

In a style reminiscent of a late-night talk show, Michael Kent invites the audience to laugh with him at the absurdity of a modern-day magician. He combines his sarcastic and irreverent sense of humor with mind-blowing magic in a way that seems to let the audience “in on the joke.” Michael has been nominated for multiple Campus Activities Awards including “Best New Rising Star,” “Best Small Venue Artist,” and 2012 Entertainer of the Year by Campus Activities Magazine. 

A resident of Columbus, Ohio, Comedian and Magician Michael Kent gives the ancient art of magic a facelift with an irreverent and often satirical comedic spin. Michael spent his younger years learning magic to make friends and meet girls. After graduating from college, it became his job. Michael studied Communication, Linguistics and Theater at The Ohio State University and has studied at the world-famous Second City comedy theater in Chicago. He has performed for audiences all over the globe from The Magic Castle in Hollywood to US Troops serving overseas in South Korea. He’s been seen in hundreds of colleges all over the country in as many as 40 states in a single year, met lots of people — even wrote a book.
