Our next special guest is Doug Leferovich! Jess and Doug talk about Jamie Lynn Spears and her devilish ways. Native New Yorker Douglas Leferovich has been surrounded by magic all his life. When he was four years old, he performed the color changing silks for his pre-K class and a career was launched. The fascination with magic continued to grow and became a significant part of his life. Performing as “Magic by the 3 L's,” Douglas, along with older brother Johnny and Dad found family fun and some financial success as the main attraction at birthday parties, school assemblies, library shows and company picnics. Truly bitten by the magic bug, Douglas went to Tannen's Magic Camp where he honed his craft learning from the best. In 1990, Douglas was off to the University of Pennsylvania where he was a communications major with a minor in marketing/advertising at the Wharton Business School. While at Penn, Douglas continued to perform magic and was hired as a consultant for the student production of Barnum. After graduation, Douglas helped create the visual comedy and magic act called The Gamesters. For the next five years, he toured the world performing in magic and variety shows and making several international TV appearances. Some performance highlights included performing for the Princess of Thailand, for Michael Jackson at his Neverland Ranch, being regular performing at the world famous Magic Castle in Hollywood, CA, being a member of a hand-picked team that vanished the Tower Bridge in London, England for a BBC Television special and was part of the design team of magic effects for music artists such as Jay-Z and Michael Jackson for their world tours. One major dream was realized when Manhattan Magic, a full evening production show that he co-created, co-wrote, co-directed and co-starred in had a successful run at the Sands Casino Hotel in Atlantic City. Over the past 15 years, Douglas has emerged as a force in Las Vegas entertainment as a result of his creativity and production expertise. Whether consulting on over a dozen headline shows in Las Vegas (which include work for Boyz II Men, Meat Loaf, The Jacksons, and Wayne Newton to name a few) or performing in the Strip's major casinos and hotels (Palms, Rio, Riviera, Frontier, Flamingo, Planet Hollywood, and currently guest starring in a show at Tropicana Resort Casino), it has become clear that Douglas has added his own special magical touch to many of the shows that audiences enjoy when they come to the entertainment capital of the world. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app
