The Mimbres Region Arts Council is pleased to present Nelson Illusions, the largest touring illusion show in the United States, a one-of-a-kind theatrical spectacle that combines rare and original illusions from around the world. The show features four Master Magicians, who together deliver a theatrical blend of mystery, music, drama, romance, comedy, and audience participation. The performance will be at WNMU Fine Arts Center Theatre, on Saturday, March 28, at 7:30 pm.

Nelson Illusions consist of four magicians: Jeff Nelson, Lynn Nelson, Sharii Nelson and Scott MacNeill. Jeff Nelson serves as MC, Director, Producer and chief Illusionist. He fell in love with magic at the age of 5 and has been performing ever since. Lynn Nelson, Jeff's wife, performs in the show and is in charge of sets, props, costumes, and promotional artwork. Lynn is a skilled magician who hails from a long tradition of magic in her family. Daughter Sharii Nelson made her first stage appearance at the age of 18 months. Her performance skills have earned her a scholarship along with several awards. She is in charge of marketing and public relations. Scott MacNeill, performer, Stage Manager and Chief Technician, studied acting in college. His variety of experiences brings unique talent to the Nelson Illusions. http://nelsonillusions.com/
