Mitch Silpa (born January 25, 1973) is an American writer, actor and director, who starred in NBC's The Rerun Show, and has appearances in shows such as Brothers & Sisters, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Desperate Housewives, Gilmore Girls, I'm with Her, One on One, Kitchen Confidential and Reno 911.

Silpa is a member of The Groundlings, an improv and sketch comedy troupe based in Los Angeles, CA.

Silpa is perhaps best known on the Internet for his David Blaine street magic parodies.^[1][2] In these parodies, Silpa masquerades as an intentionally low-quality likeness of the world-renowned magician. Actors Mikey Day and Michael Naughton also appear in these parodies, as men whom Silpa terrorizes with his "magic".^[1]
