Sure, there’s nothing worse than a bad magic act, but Orlando native Nathan Coe Marsh has proven his magical mettle on Penn & Teller: Fool Us and honed his craft on a never-ending string of tour dates. His recent acts include a segment highlighting the history of magic with illusions with roots that go back for millennia. His stop at the Improv this week sees him playing a rare hometown gig before heading back out on the circuit.

8 p.m. Wednesday; Orlando Improv, 9101 International Drive; $15-$45; theimprovorlando.com
