Memphis Magic Night is a new monthly live magic show featuring local and national magicians, comedians, mentalists, and various artists. This month’s show on Monday, August 18th, at Bar DKDC will showcase Memphis magician and mentalist Joe M. Turner and comedian Rob Love, a 15-year veteran of the Memphis comedy scene.
Turner says, “The audience is welcome to come early to have a drink and some food. I’ll be doing a close-up magic set while meeting new friends; then the comedian will come on for 20 minutes to make you laugh really hard. This is the kind of magic I want people to enjoy and remember.”
Turner founded Memphis Magic Night in March 2025 after hosting a similar night in Atlanta for 11 years. He has 25 years of experience in the business and has traveled all over the world as a magician and mentalist. He has performed in 50 countries, in theaters, on cruises, and on television, with shows at the Hollywood’s Magic Castle, the Chicago Magic Lounge, the Monday Night Magic series in New York, and the London Palladium.
Meanwhile, comedian Rob Love is not only a Memphis comedy veteran but has performed at the Apollo Comedy Club in New York, the Comedy Store in L.A., and the Laugh Factory in Hollywood.
The PG-13-rated Memphis Magic Night isn’t for kids, so there will be no birds or rabbits at Turner’s set. The performances are interactive for audiences, with tons of surprises and mentalism. If you enjoy comedy shows and cabaret-like performances, then this is the event for you. Tickets are $20 in advance (here), $25 at the door, and can be paid in cash or through Venmo.
