Card Ninja

Winner - The Press Critics Choice Award 'Best National Artist' World Buskers Festival 2012

CARD NINJA is the brain child of Javier Jarquin. A variety/magic act with a twist, CARD NINJA dispenses with the tacky vest and hat and wows audiences with a display of comedy and playing cards as weapons.

CARD NINJA has performed at comedy clubs, cabaret & burlesque nights and festivals in NZ, Australia, the UK and Europe.

Reviews:
"Excelled at ninja standard card-trickery" - The Evening Standard

"Flips the whole concept of card trick on its head" - The List

"the real aces up his sleeve, however, were his winning, charismatic stage personality, and some genuinely punchy comedy material" - The Stage

"Who would have thought a man throwing playing cards could be so much fun?" - The Press (NZ)

"Jarquin's audience got to spend an hour cracking up at him doing ninja stuff with cards… easily the most unique hour of this edition of the Comedy Festival" - Salient Magazine
