Toronto: Lawrence Larouche and Cynthia Martin in State of Mind -- The Illusion of Choice [Apr 6 - 30]

From the Casa Loma website:

April 6th – 30th, 2023
Thursday – Sunday Evenings

The entire audience becomes part of the cast, partaking in several experiments that inevitably lead to remarkable conclusions. The Carriage Room Stage will feature Miraculum, created by famed mentalist Lawrence Larouche, is a doorway into a world of tantalizing mysteries. As members of the audience partake in the vast array of strange and bizarre experiments in the Carriage Room, they become more and more like mesmerized children playing in the magician’s back yard.  The performance awakens something within all of us that has been inadvertently left behind on the way to adulthood… the sense of astonishment and wonder. In the newly designed theatre space on the second floor of the Stables, world renowned magician Jeff Kaylor creates an unforgettable intimate experience for the audience.

The Majinx Virtually Impossible Show [Jan 28 & Feb 21]

Tickets at Eventbrite.

 

From the January 10th article "Making Magic: The Majinx Virtually Impossible Show" by Joel Haslam at CTV News:

 In a time of lockdowns, restrictions and isolation, entertainer Lawrence Larouche believes the show must go on.

“We all need a little miracle once in a while to make us smile,” said Larouche.

Larouche is a magician. For more than 30 years, he’s typically performed for live audiences on stage.


“Suddenly, when the pandemic hit, we couldn’t do any of that. We had to find another way.”

That “way” would be found in a workshop on Larouche’s St. Eugene, Ont. property. A building, where he designs and builds props would become the backdrop for a virtual magic show.

“I thought, 'Let’s give them a peek behind the curtain so they can see what it looks like in a real magic workshop.'”

Larouche set up lights and a video camera, and using the "magic" of Zoom technology, he now brings the “Majinx Virtually Impossible Show” to audiences worldwide.
