Luis Carreon, La Bestia at Chicago Magic Lounge

Chicago Reader - Highly Recommended

"...This is a magic show that is about more than the illusions, although those are first-rate (albeit not groundbreaking). And that gorgeous, unabashedly romantic opener aside, this is also a show where Carreon puts his verbal gifts-both as a comedian and a storyteller-to the task of celebrating his Mexican heritage along with his formidable skills at sleight of hand."

Around The Town Chicago - Highly Recommended

"...Luis Carreon, "La Bestia", is-as the Spanish word means-the beast. He's not only the beast but the best! Talented, convincing, and funny, he charms his audience with his well-crafted magic act. He calls himself La Bestia when he is proud of his success accomplishing a difficult magic trick. But at the next moment, he can be self-deprecating. He will intentionally make a mistake and say, "Oh, no!" or "Uh-o!" and then astound us by doing the trick far better than anybody could imagine."
