Dan Stapleton has spent most of his performing years thrilling audiences from "sea to shining sea". His first ship, the Stella Solaris, first took Dan to the Mediterranean with exotic stops in Greece, Turkey, Israel and Egypt. It was here that he was part of the original "Love Boat" televison cast. He happened to be performing aboard the ship when they asked him to be a part of the two 2-hr. specials. From Alaska to Tahiti, Hawaii to nearly every island in the Caribbean, The Magic, Comedy & Illusions of Dan Stapleton has a wide appeal for all ages.

Dan has two different 45 min. shows that involves audience members, delights children, and astonishes even the critics. From large illusions such as making a six foot "live" butterfly appear, to his hilarious Pick-Pocket act, he guarantees his comedy and magic will not disappoint. For those ships looking for some extra day-time activities, Dan also has a funny, yet charming, Close-up magic act, at no extra cost to the cruise line.

On many ships, Dan has also hosted a very funny Not-So Newlywed game as well as presenting his lecture concerning the old television shows of the '50's & '60's. But having himself appear from a box of fire to a charming turn involving a child and his balloon, the audiences always leave the ship with wonderful memories of Dan Stapleton's Magic & Comedy.
