Program Offerings
World of Wonder
World of Wonder is a program designed for the whole family,
theatre that charms audiences of all ages with the actor's
imagination, the mime's skill, and the conjuror's craft.
Beginning with the amazing and lost art of shadowgraph or
hand shadows, Leland conjures up an amazing menagerie of
silhouettes using only his hands. He is recognized in
conjuring circles as an expert on the history of this
antique art.
Imagine also a single piece of paper that transforms into an
astonishing array of items, including a mask, a bicycle, a
hat, a barbell, a baby, and you get a glimpse at the power
of mime, magic, and imagination.
Concerts often include his short film, The Sky God's Dance,
made using cut-outs and 16mm film, and based on his life in
Africa.
In the role of a Japanese master of paper illusion he brings
origami to life, paper cranes stretch their wings, and
become living creatures. Concluding this visual fantasy,
folded butterflies fill the air with color in a beautiful
homage to Old Japan.
World of Wonder is a journey around the world that occurs in
the most magical of all places, your self. For Leland,
dreaming is the real magic power, and your imagination is
the magic carpet that lets him take you on this wonderful
journey.
