The second episode of the night had the judges reviewing the 244 promoted acts and attempting to select only 36 acts go to the semifinals.
Here's a big shout out to all of the magicians featured on the show: Vladimir the Great, Neil Croswell, Ryan Joyce, Mike D'Urzo, Warren Toaze, Jordan Murciano, Edward Stone, Lucas Wilson, Oslen and Benoit Fournier. You all did a fabulous job of representing the magic community and raising the profile of magic in the mainstream media with your appearances on CGT!
Unfortunately, of the 36 acts, there was a glimpse of only one magician. It went by fast and looked like it could have been Oslen from the Vancouver auditions.
Congratulations Oslen! We're rooting for you!
Edited at 7:00am to add:
- From Canada Newswire:
With Canada's overwhelming number of talented performers to choose from, the judges could not contain the number of semifinalists to just 37. Subsequently, two additional acts from the You Tube 'Last Chance Auditions,' sponsored by Nissan, will also be included, bringing the total number of semifinalists to 39. These two acts - the highest vote-getter and one selected by the judges - will be revealed during the first live results show on April 3.
