It’s NO ILLUSION: The ZUBRICK MAGIC THEATRE in ST. PETE is OPEN NOW
Article by Nanette Wiser
Be prepared to be amazed when award-winning illusionists Chris and Ryan Zubrick perform at the Zubrick Magic Theatre this summer in the EDGE District in downtown St. Petersburg. Opening night was a huge success on July 29th and their ribbon cutting with the St. Petersburg and Tampa Bay Chambers of Commerce will be August 25th.
This spectacular venue in shades of black, gold and purple (the colors of intrigue and wonder), studded with twinkle light and sophisticated glitter is giving audiences young and old a kaleidoscope of sights, sounds and sensations they’ve never experienced before.
The Zubricks conjure up an exhilarating blend of sleight-of-hand, family-friendly comedy and breathtaking grand-scale illusions in a whimsical and elegant performance that captures the hearts and imaginations of multi-generational audiences.
Originally from Michigan, Chris and Ryan were magic-obsessed youngsters who knew they loved magic from a young age. They met by accident in 2005 when they were both booked for the same event. The rest is kismet, from their astounding success overseas to their marriage and happy days raising their son Oliver (now 4) and building the theatre with the help of their friends and family.
Chris and Ryan returned from a 13-year run performing overseas on the islands of Saipan and Guam. After performing over 7,500 shows for more than 2 million people, they decided to bring their astonishing brand of magic and grand illusion back to the United States. They toured 26 states and chose St. Petersburg because they wanted to raise their son Oliver in a family-friendly community that supports diversity and LGBTQ parents.
“St. Petersburg ticked off all our boxes,” explains Chris. “A warm climate with palm trees and beaches (no Michigan winters), a great place to raise our son, a world-class arts and entertainment industry, a popular tourist destination and a great place to live and work. We believe that our theatre will draw people from all over the country (and the world) and is a refreshing addition to the local scene.”
An intimate and unforgettable evening of magical entertainment fits the bill for date night, an opportunity to escape reality with a group of friends or the chance to seek a mind-boggling activity the whole family can enjoy together.
“Chris and Ryan Zubrick cut a stunning picture with their unique and fresh look. Articulate and personable, they entertain and charm audiences with their winning personalities and impressive magic,” says David Copperfield’s co-director and choreographer Joannie Spina. Their St. Petersburg show is more personal. When they performed abroad, their audience spoke multiple languages, so their commentary was minimal. In the new theatre, they weave together stories about growing up, their family, their heroes like Lance Burton and
they perform illusions inspired by their history and love of magic. Be prepared for an ethereal firefly illusion reminiscent of summers in Michigan. Even Oliver gets into the groove, telling Daddy and Papa Zubrick that he will perform there one day and pointing out things at the store they need for the theatre.
“Magic creates a childlike wonder in all of us,” says Chris. “After this year’s pandemic, we all need some magic in our lives. It’s the perfect time to open our theatre.”
It’s no wonder the duo has been showered with awards such as “The Merlin Award” in 2018 for Best Family Magic Show, the industry’s highest honor. Previous recipients included Penn & Teller, Criss Angel and Siegfried & Roy. Other kudos include Magician of the Year, Best Stage Act, Best Costume and Trophy of Excellence from prestigious entertainment and industry groups.
“We are passionate about creating a fantastic, one-of-a-kind experience for our audience,” said Chris Zubrick. “Our goal is to amaze and entertain people of all ages and create wonderful memories that will last a lifetime.” Ryan Zubrick added, “We look forward to entertaining guests at our magical venue which creates a new thrilling and mesmerizing experience for the St. Petersburg community and its year-round tourists.”
No doubt, Zubrick Magic Theatre will be the hottest ticket in St. Petersburg for years to come.

Reviews for "Influencing the Advertising Landscape: The Legacy of the Quiznos mascot ad"
- John - 1 star - I found the Quiznos mascot ad to be annoying and off-putting. The mascot itself, with its bulging eyes and strange voice, was enough to make me change the channel as soon as it came on. The whole concept and execution of the ad felt forced and cringeworthy. It did not make me want to try their sandwiches, it just made me want to avoid their brand altogether.
- Lisa - 2 stars - The Quiznos mascot ad was just too bizarre for my taste. I couldn't understand the purpose behind having a weird creature singing about sandwiches with a voice that was grating on the ears. The ad left me feeling confused and slightly disturbed, making me question the sanity of the people behind it. Needless to say, I won't be visiting Quiznos anytime soon.
- Mark - 1 star - What on earth were the creators of the Quiznos mascot ad thinking? It was a complete failure in my opinion. The animation was creepy, the song was obnoxious, and the whole concept was just strange. I would have much preferred an ad that focused on the quality and taste of their sandwiches rather than a bizarre mascot. This ad did nothing to convince me to give Quiznos a try.
- Jessica - 2 stars - The Quiznos mascot ad was just plain weird. I couldn't understand the connection between a strange creature and a sandwich. The ad did not provide any valuable information about their products or what sets them apart from their competitors. It felt like a random and poorly executed attempt at grabbing attention. Overall, I was not impressed and it did not make me want to try Quiznos.
