The Great Comedy Magic Walk

Overview

Robert Malissa is an award-winning, incredibly funny, laugh provoking, out-of-this -world, comedy magician with low self-esteem (who writes his own bios). He has a very warm style with the goal of sharing the joy inherent in a moment of magic.

Rob encourages participation and ensures that his volunteers and the rest of the audience have a great time.

Where else will you find comedy, trust exercises, magic, les miserables, and an abundance of dad jokes while also learning (very little) history?! Rob is friendly and funny and an excellent magician. It was a great tour for someone who just moved to the city and for Philadelphia natives. We can’t say enough nice things!
