Fremont Street Experience Brings back Free Illusion Show


International illusionist Jan Rouven will once again appear exclusively at Fremont Street Experience with his show “Jan Rouven Presents Death-Defying Illusions." Performing on the 1st Street Stage, the two free nightly shows will run seven days a week from Nov. 5 through Nov. 30.

Jan Rouven’s show features some of the world’s most dangerous and thrilling acts: an authentic propeller blade taken out of a industrial AC sucking him into the running rotor; a girl punched by metal spikes at break-neck speed; a volunteer from the audience playing Russian roulette with a sharp knife and the thrill rises even more when the illusionist nearly drowns cuffed and chained under water. The lure of danger and the penchant to create highly risky acts have earned him the moniker “The Man with Nine Lives.”

Rouven returns from a recent tour in Germany.
