Las Vegas, N.M – Mystifier Mike Super performs a Magic & Illusion Show Sept. 15 at 7 p.m. in New Mexico Highlands University’s historic Ilfeld Auditorium, 900 University Ave.

Super’s appeal to audiences of all ages has made him one of the most sought after magicians in the United States and internationally.

“The Ilfeld audience last year at Highlands really enjoyed Mike Super’s talent when he performed, and we had a number of requests to bring him back,” said Donna Martínez, Ilfeld Auditorium manager. “This year he’ll be performing a different show that is sure to be just as spellbinding. It’s a family- friendly performance.”

Martínez said the Mike Super performance is part of the Highlands homecoming festivities, which begin Sept. 8 and continue through Sept. 17.

Super has garnered numerous awards such as being voted America’s Favorite Mystifier on NBC’s hit TV show Phenomenon, and was named Best Novelty Performer of the Year. He has also appeared on Penn & Teller’s Fool Us TV magic series.

Accolades for Super range from The Walt Disney Co. calling him, “One of our favorite entertainers,” to Ellen DeGeneres saying Super’s act is “amazing!”

General admission tickets are $12. Children 10 and younger are $8. Highlands University faculty and staff are $10 along with students from other schools. Highlands students are free with valid HU ID.

Advance tickets are available beginning Sept. 1 at the university’s KEDP radio station ticket office, Studio 103, 901 University Ave., Monday – Friday 10 a.m. – 12 p.m. and 1 – 5 p.m. Or call 505-454-3238.
