She’s the only female headlining magician in Las Vegas today and she’s just getting started. The Magic of Jen Kramer was recently renewed for two more years at the Westgate Cabaret and the energetic performer is talking all about her all-ages show and how she puts it together on the latest episode of All The Vegas.

“I want to create a show that is positive and has that upbeat energy to it, and I love that it’s a show you can bring the whole family to,” she says. “That’s important, to be able to create a show not just for kids and not just for adults.”

We also talk with Jen about studying theater arts at Yale and how her college experience influenced her magical career choice; the long legacy of entertainment at Westgate; doing an internship in Las Vegas with Nathan Burton; performing earlier this year at the Magic Castle in Hollywood; becoming a role model in a male-dominated field of entertainment; and learning to expect the unexpected when it comes to audience participation.

EPISODE 29: THE VEGAS YOU NEED

Jen is a big fan of the dining options at her Vegas headquarters and recommends you do some restaurant hopping at Westgate.

Mark is all about that Maverick Helicopters tour that takes you for a picnic at the Grand Canyon.

According to Brock, it’s time to go back to the Mirage to see Boyz II Men.
