Matt "The Maverick" Burton -
Magician and Cheat
Matt Burton’s riverboat gambler magic act is a feature for any audience close-up or stage. Artistic slight of hand, able to be appreciated from the smallest to the largest audience, combines a perfect blend of excitement, comedy and mystery.
Matt began his interest in magic after receiving a magic kit for his 11th birthday. By the time he was fifteen, he was working restaurants and doing kids parties. Over the last 20 years Matt has entertained as an "Honest Cheat" at thousands of private events and theatrical revues all over the West Coast. He also performed as the house "Maverick" for 9 seasons on the Sternwheeler cruise ship Queen of the West.
Currently Matt resides in the Pacific Northwest performing at fairs, cruise ships and corporate events and has won many awards in magic including a first in Excellence in Stage Magic from IBM #249, the 1999 Desmond Stage Magic Award and the PCAM 2000 Pro Challenge. He also won the 2003 Northwest Magic Jamboree stage magic contest and the senior stage magic contest and Brad Jacobs People’s Choice Award at the 2004 SAM National Convention in St. Louis.
Don’t gamble with your entertainment. Use an honest cheat.....
