The man they call REVEEN! Reveen the “Impossibilist” toured Canada and the United States in the ’70s, exposing the power of a full beard and a red-shirt-covered pot belly to mildly amused audiences. He was last spotted (by me, on YouTube) in 1987, promoting his upcoming appearance at Saint John High School. He also was the 2000 recipient of the DRAGON Award, an annual award “given to magicians who excel in Drama, Romance, Artistry, Glamour, Originality, and Necromancy.” [Wikipedia]

Tropicana!

Enjoy—and I use that with the most delicate touch—some extremely poor quality videos of the man, the mystery, the magic, after… the jump! Poof!

(Why did I start looking for Raveen? Because people occasionally insult Ricky on Trailer Park Boys by calling him “Reveen.”)
