PORT ANGELES — Joseph Reohm, a nontraditional magician and illusionist, is set to give a performance in the Pirate Union Building, aka the PUB at Peninsula College, this Thursday night.

Admission to the 7 p.m. event is a suggested $5 donation for the general public while students will get in free. Reohm’s show is recommended for viewers age 16 and older.

The PUB is in the J building at Peninsula College, 1502 E. Lauridsen Blvd.

A Pacific Northwest native, Reohm now lives in Los Angeles, where he markets his act to events big and small, performing at NBA half-time shows and for clients such as Costco and Macy’s. He presents himself as a “stage manipulator,” one who doesn’t wear a tuxedo or top hat. Instead he uses his own brand of charm.

“I am an escape artist. I don’t escape from straight jackets or chains,” Reohm writes on JosephReohm.com.

“I break you free from your world and into mine; a world where magic isn’t a trick but a reality . . . where physics knows no bounds and gravity is whatever I choose it to be.”
