Peter Wood, the Collector of the Impossible, presents incredible, magical objects with unparalleled showmanship.
He has appeared twice on national television, where Penn & Teller said his act was “beautiful, subtle.” Baltimore Magazine described Peter as “charming, witty, and amazing,” and Washington Business Journal said that he “will blow your mind.”
His interactive show feels like stepping into a cabinet of curiosities, and your attendees are the stars of the show! With intelligence and humor, Peter shares one-of-a-kind impossibilia: supernatural paintings, mysterious elixirs, mind-reading devices, and more.
Peter was great! It was a large crowd of 8 year olds and he managed to keep them entertained and attentive. The tricks were a success for all ages, and many kept talking about the show after it was over.
I highly recommend this show.

The real magic is not in his exceptional sleight-of-hand, but in Peter's ability to make adults feel like children again. Imagine an audience removed from the troubles of the world, laughing and clapping as unexplained events unfold and clever humor flies.
Wood's performances engage even the most jaded and well-traveled, entertaining not with cheesy puzzles and goofy one-liners, but with dazzling eye candy and astonishing mind mysteries.
