Jason Magnus Productions :
Established 1970. Jason Magnus Productions is a theatrical
booking agent for magic and juggling shows for any occasion,
by Jason Magnus. We create one-of-a-kind, custom-made
costumes for theatrical performances and reenactment groups.
We can also provide technical assistance on theater arts,
sound lighting, and pyrotechnics and other special

Jay Brandt has been performing stage
magic as "Jason Magnus" since 1970. While still in high
school he was performing at banquets and parties. He has
been a member of the Portland Society of Magicians
(Portland, Oregon), and the Pacific Coast Association of
Magicians. He has performed in several countries around the
world, and on four continents. From Red Deer, Alberta,
Canada to Panama City in Panama, and from San Francisco, CA,
USA to Palma de Majorca, Spain, audiences have been thrilled
and amazed with his sleight of hand, escape acts and small
scale illusions. Jay is also a skilled woodworker and
craftsman, and can build a variety of magic props for other
magicians. He has worked in Radio as an announcer and on
stage as a master of ceremonies, and has an excellent voice
for working with or without a microphone.
Laurie Brandt is a graduate of the
Portland Junior Civic Theater school, and has an Associate
degree in TV Production and Broadcast from Mt. Hood
Community College. Her skills include acting, directing, and
backstage management. She is also a skilled seamstress, and
can design and make theatrical costumes and everyday
clothing.
Both Jay and Laurie can set up and run
theatrical lighting and sound systems. They have also
designed and helped with the effects for a number of
"haunted houses", including making latex prosthetics for
specialty makeup (horns, scars, etc.).
