~You can usually catch Mark & Sheila performing at the world famous Hollywood Magic Castle!~
Mark & Sheila Cannon's show is a refreshingly different -and Dangerous- escape act that is designed for sophisticated adult and family audiences. Their unique, fast-paced performance consists of audience participation, exciting visual magic, and death-defying escapes. As an example, in the "Spiked Cabinet", Mark must escape from underneath a wall of spikes before the rope supporting them burns through! AND ALL OF THIS ACTION TAKES PLACE IN FULL VIEW OF THE AUDIENCE - not behind a curtain. This act alone is usually talked about for days by those who have witnessed it.

If you host a magic organization and would like to schedule Mark & Sheila Cannon's 21st Century Escape Lecture, click
here. This is the same lecture that was
recently featured at the Hollywood Magic Castle and met with rave reviews.
Mark & Sheila Cannon are also owners of Cannon's Great Escapes, a company that provides escape equipment for the professional escape artist.
