Yeatland Wong in the Calgary Herald
From the article "Hobson: Behind the curtain for a good cause" by Louis B. Hobson in the Calgary Herald:
I honestly couldn’t resist this concept of theatre for charity. Audiences can have a fun night out knowing most of their ticket price is going to deserving charities.
If you wave the Kinsmen banner, it’s amazing who comes to your aid. We needed advice on how to stage the opening illusion and, voila, local magician and illusionist Yeatland Wong to the rescue. He has been an invaluable resource, not only for the mystifying cabinets illusion but on how to properly strap someone in a straight jacket.

Calgary and Orillia: Darcy Oake
From the Calgary Herald:
From Darcy Oake's Facebook page:
Oake’s final appearance that won him the contest is not actually an illusion.
He is strapped into a straitjacket and suspended by his ankles with a rope attached to a massive human bear trap that is programmed to snap shut in 58 seconds.
Watching him struggle to escape is truly nerve wracking.
Oake insists that mind-boggling escape pales in comparison to the water escape he will do when he appears at the Grey Eagle Casino Event Centre at 8 p.m. on June 23.

2017 Calgary Magic Circle Lecture Pass
From the Calgary Magic Circle:
If you don’t act on this, the Calgary Magic Circle is going to vanish.
Give it to me straight, doc. The Calgary Magic Circle has experienced dwindling participation at meetings and events for the past few years. People have their various reasons for not being a member, or not attending our regular meetings. I’m not going to get into that right now. Here’s the pressing issue…
Unless we get a major commitment of your attendance, the magic lecture series is going to be cancelled.
This is the tour that brings world champions and stars of magic like the legendary Michael Ammar, Spanish card master Dani DaOrtiz, children’s magic expert Danny Orleans, and many more to Calgary so they can share their magic, experience, and tricks of the trade. This tour is an opportunity for all Calgary magicians to grow in their art.
Right now we are in serious danger of losing it all.
It’s simple math. For the past three years the club has been losing money on every lecture. We’ve tried to keep ticket prices low, and affordable for our members. However, the cost of fees, flights and hotels for our guest presenters simply adds up far beyond ticket sales. The club has been scraping by on savings, subsidizing these events, but that source has dried up. Without immediate intervention, the well is dry and next year’s tour will be cancelled.
If you want the opportunity to get personal instruction from some of the best magicians in the world, you have to speak up now.
We need your commitment in order to sign on for the 2017 tour. The only way the CMC executive can sign the deal for next year is with your support for the ENTIRE year. Picking and choosing one or two lectures is not sustainable. To move forward, the only option is an annual lecture subscription.
With your support we have five more great lectures coming this year. To keep this amazing resource in Calgary, we’re asking you to make a commitment to all 5 lectures that will run from now until November.
Here’s what’s coming up
- February 20th – Kenrick ICE McDonald
- May 7th – Jon Allen
- June 18th – 20th – “Silly Billy” David Kaye (Exact date TDB)
- August 28th – Jörg Alexander
- November 12th – Bizzaro (Exact date TDB)

Calgary: Derek Selinger helps Dreams Take Flight
See Derek in “The Gift” on March 10 at the Jack Singer Concert Hall.
From the Calgary Herald:
From 660 News:
From the Calgary Herald:
Local and internationally acclaimed illusionist Derek Selinger has been working on his show “The Gift” for the past 20 years, and will be performing his one-of-a-kind act in Calgary to raise funds for Dreams Take Flight Calgary, a non-profit that sends kids with physical, mental and medical disabilities on a special trip to Disneyland every year.
“There are pieces in this show that nobody on earth is doing. We’re really excited to put it on stage here in Calgary,” Selinger said. “It’s an opportunity for people not only to support Dreams Take Flight, but learn a bit about magic they do, too.”
Read more and buy tickets.
From 660 News:
Master illusionist Derek Selinger will create magic when he takes the stage at the Jack Singer Concert Hall next month to benefit Calgary children.
Selinger, a long-time volunteer for Dreams Take Flight, will be performing his new show “The Gift” with 100 per cent of the proceeds to go to the local not-for-profit.
Dreams Take Flight is a charity that takes children who have experienced some sort of physical, social or mental challenge to Disneyland for the day.
