Step into the world of wonder that sparked Rich Bloch'\;s lifelong passion for magic &mdash\; a passion that ultimately led him to create the enchanting Dickens Parlour Theatre!
\n\nIt all began in 1946\, when comedy legends Bud Abbott and Lou Costello offered Rich&rsquo\;s mother\, Billie Bloch\, the chance for her three-year-old son to stay in Hollywood and begin his show business journey under their mentorship. Billie\, ever the protective mother\, declined the offer\, returning Rich to the safety of the East Coast. But the magic had already taken hold.
\n\nToday\, Rich is a world-renowned entertainer who has captivated audiences at corporate events\, cruise lines\, Las Vegas\, and Atlantic City. A two-time recipient of the prestigious &ldquo\;Blackstone Award&rdquo\; from the International Platform Association and a six-time nominee for Stage Magician of the Year\, Rich'\;s extraordinary career also earned him a 2006 Fellowship at Hollywood&rsquo\;s Magic Castle.
\n\nBut Rich is more than just a performer\; he'\;s a magician&rsquo\;s magician. With over 80 original magic effects to his name\, many crafted at his own magic studio\, Collectors&rsquo\; Workshop\, his innovations have been sought after by magicians around the globe. And in the early days of his career\, Rich worked alongside the legendary Orson Welles as a scriptwriter and magic consultant &mdash\; with Welles himself dubbing Rich "\;an Edison of Magic."\;
\n\nCome see the magic that started it all\, live at Dickens Parlour Theatre!
