Why This Night Is Different

Not a stage you watch from far away

Most live shows put you in a seat halfway back, watching something happen at a distance.

This is 50 people. The story unfolds right in front of you. The same show I take on the road and charge thousands of dollars for, brought to Lake Charles at a price that lets you actually be in the seat.

Your Host

Aaron Baca,
The Southern Gentleman

I live in Lake Charles. I travel the country performing for Coca-Cola, New York Life, CBS, Chick-fil-A, and Edward Jones, and perform for VIP guests at casinos like the Golden Nugget, Horseshoe, and Coushatta.

People ask all the time where they can come see me perform. The answer has always been the same. I do private corporate work, not public shows. This is the exception. One night, in my hometown, so the people here can finally see what I do.

See you at Bodega.

It was unlike any show we have ever been to. Aaron really makes you feel the magic in the air and makes you feel a part of the show. My fiance and I went for a little date night and we couldn't have been happier. I would definitely suggest this to any couple looking for date night ideas.

My wife and I loved our evening with Aaron Baca. He really put on a show and we are proud to have such a talented magician right here in Lake Charles. It was a great date night.
