About the Performers: 

Trino- Having grown up just an hour from "The Magic Capital of the World” (Colon, MI), Trino learned the art from top professionals that helped him quickly grow into a seasoned performer and entertainer. For 15 years (over half his life) Trino has loved bringing laughter, amazement, and high-quality entertainment to audiences of all ages. Now based in Grand Rapids, Michigan, you can find him entertaining at various events and traveling the country with his wife, Ashley, and their hairless cat, Cannoli. As seen on Fox, The Verge, CW Network, and ABC as well as a guest act on the Masters of Illusion tour, Trino is a versatile entertainer who has helped produce a variety of performances and events from packed-out college shows and corporate events to private soirées and company parties. Thanks to his combination of skill and quick wit, Trino has been privileged to perform for celebrities such as Gene Simmons (KISS), Lee Brice (Billboard Chart Topping Country Artist), Kevin Nealon (SNL, Weeds) and many others. Most recently Trino was seen on the CW Network’s latest season of Masters of Illusion.

Brynn Cummings- a talented 13-year-old, has been enchanting audiences with her magic and ventriloquism since the age of 8. Her exceptional abilities have propelled her to great heights in the world of performance arts. Most recently, Brynn competed on America’s Got Talent, where she placed in the Top 5 on the live Semi-Final episode. In 2019, Brynn achieved a momentous victory, securing 1st place at the prestigious 82nd Annual Abbott's Magic Get Together, a renowned magic convention held in Colon, Michigan. Building on her success, she triumphed once again in 2022, claiming the top spot in the Junior Open Mic at VentHaven, an annual ventriloquist convention.
