The Glove Theatre is excited to present John Westford -- Illusionist, Magician, and Actor - dazzling audiences in theaters nationwide, on national television and on cruise ships all over the world! This is a family-friendly - ALL AGES show!
John’s resume is as impressive as his mind-bending illusions, but what really sets him apart is his quick wit. His ability to ad-lib and improvise in the moment makes each show one of a kind!
What started with “a magic set and a $5 paycheck for a birthday party” led to a career as an international magician, with some quick-thinking comedy thrown in. Westford began a more conventional career with the Pennsylvania State Senate, but the world of magic and entertainment called to him, leading him to leave his 9-to-5 job behind and star in a variety stage show in Paramount’s Kings Dominion.
From there he was offered gigs in New York City and made appearances on national television along with most of the major cruise lines, including appearances with Alabama, The Beach Boys, Joan Rivers, Clint Holmes, and Jerry Lee Lewis.
More recently Westford has appeared in dozens of TV shows and major motion pictures, including as a young Dan Aykroyd in Celebrity Ghost Stories and as a secret service agent for the secretary of state, played by Sigourney Weaver. Westford’s comedy and illusion show has taken him to more than 37 countries and nearly every state.
All ages welcome! 21+ to purchase adult beverages with a valid ID.
