"The finest location for up to date information
on magic in Canada." -- Shawn Farquhar |
Something fun to start the weekend!
From Eric Leclerc's September 23rd posting to his YouTube channel:
ICYMI, have a look at look at his June 26th reaction video of Eric and Alex Boyer watching the now 10 year old video "40 Magic Tricks in 4 minutes!!! (10 years later)."
From Mark's September 24th Instagram post:
NEVER BEFORE SEEN SHOW FOOTAGE LEAKED 🔥 (by me). Mark these dates in your calendar. They will be up for a limited time on my website (link in bio), there will be screenings and online events being announced soon.
A great chance to witness the charm and magic of Lucy Darling, the recipient of the 2019 AMA Stage Magician of the Year award! Shows for this run start September 25 until October 4th and are available at TheLucyDarling.com.
If her current show is half as much fun as her May 15th live stream, it will be excellent!
From The Lucy Darling:
“VERDICT: highly recommended for a very magical, entertaining and comical interlude to the current uncertain times. Be sure to (virtually) invite Lucy Darling into your home for refreshing hour of fun, magical entertainment.”
Lucy Darling is an award-winning magician known the world over for her wit, her charm, and her exceptionally good hair.
Along with her live-in butlers Marcy and Laurence, Lucy is here with a wonderful mix of playful interactions, hilarious comedy, and impossible magical feats, to offer you an incredible immersive experience. This show was carefully designed to satisfy your deep desire for a fun night out, while staying safely inside.
From the September 8th Facebook post from Miranda Allen Entertainment:
Hanging by her ankles 20 feet in the air, Miranda must escape from a straightjacket, free her feet, and find her way to the floor in three minutes. The escape is hastened by the Specter of Consequences, Carisa Hendrix, and hoisted by Chris The Rigging Guy.
If you'd like to watch the consequences of this escape, go to:

Thank you to Fringe Theatre Adventures in Edmonton for hosting us.
ICYMI, last week Disney released the movie "Magic Camp" which was inspired by Mike Segal's brainchild, Sorcerers Safari Magic Camp. The first iteration was written by Mike's brother-in-law. Mike did consulting (as did Justin Willman) for this project which was 17 years in the making!
I don't have access to Disney Plus so I haven't seen it yet. If you have, I'd love to hear your review!
Last night I watched Magic Camp on Disney+ and I have to be honest.

It’s easily one of the BEST representations of magic in a movie I have ever seen. It’s true and honest and will EASILY inspire thousands and thousands of future magicians!
Bravo Disney!
From the August 7th YourTV Niagara Facebook post:
Master Magician Greg Frewin With Niagara recently moving into stage 3, Master Magician @Greg Frewin and his team have resumed shows at The Greg Frewin Theatre in Niagara Falls. Greg spoke to the Source about coming back after an almost five month break, what safety procedures are in place for his staff and guests, and a few charity events taking place at the Theatre in the coming weeks.

You started a VLOG in the middle of a pandemic???
Yes we did!
We took a trip to the Browsers Den of Magic to visit Jeff, buy some tricks, and have a good time

With ONLY four spots still open for the August 3rd Session and a ton of emails from folks in Europe and elsewhere asking for a different time slot, I have decided to do one more on August 4th. This one will be at 12:00 PM (noon) in Vancouver which will be a much more reasonable hour for my friends in Paris, London, Tel Aviv, Sweden, Norway, etc.

Howard Brown has the most amazing story to tell. In fact several stories as a twin, cancer survivor. And the collaboration of jewish and muslim faiths to serve meals to first responders. Listen to learn more from Lady Sarah and Keith Fields on their 30 mins show - A Cup of T.
Champion of champions Shawn Farquhar will be joining from Canada. He has fooled Penn and Teller on their hit show 'Fool Us', not once but 3 times. He has magic and stories about his magic theater 'Hidden Wonders' to share.
Miranda Allen and Sarah Emslie on Penn & Teller: Fool Us Season 7 Episode 04. Miranda Allen is handcuffed, wrapped in chains, and submerged in an oak barrel overflowing with red wine. The lid is secured on top with 35 pounds of chain and a maximum-security padlock. There is no light, and no air.

MAGICIANS ONLY! Magic Spoiler Alert! A full tutorial and explanation of the ruses and methodology I used to fool some of the best minds in magic! I decided to reveal the secret because we invented this Magic Trick SPECIFICALLY for this show! It has never been done before AND I will never repeat it again!
Join us on Thursday, June 25 at 19 pm (EDT), on the Facebook page of the APF, to attend the Virtual Anti-Gala of the French Press Awards 2020 the magician Eric Leclerc.
It’s all, still, fertile material for follow-up coverage.
“We went there to do a YouTube clip, and we came away with enough for a three-part episode,” says Sawchuck, who adds that he was stunned at some of Lowe’s on-camera claims that dead bodies — no joke — remain buried on the property. “Seth was watching this stuff and saying, ‘You know this is all going to go viral, right?’ And Jeff was just fine to talk to us about everything. I was shocked, actually.”
The first mini-doc in the series is set to post June 3 on Sawchuck’s YouTube page.
