From the April 11th Instagram post by Vitaly Evening of Wonders:

I'm looking forward to coming back to @mapleridgeact (Maple Ridge, BC) on May 15th!

About 10 years ago, it was one of the first venues that took a chance and presented my show in the Lower Mainland! It will be a pleasure to come back as a closing performance of the Arts Council’s 50th Anniversary Season!

From the Harold Green Theatre Company:

Vitaly, celebrated as one of the most unique and innovative illusionists in the world, brings his most ambitious work to Toronto. Vitaly combines the art of illusion with stories of his years growing up in Israel. Vitaly does more than entertain; he moves, inspires, and instills within all who experience his show a fresh perspective on life and a greater realization that ours is a world of beauty and wonder.

Maple Ridge: The Great Gordini and Norden the Magician [April 30]

From the April 19th article "Serving up magic, laughs, and family fun at home show in Maple Ridge --
The Great Gordini will be performing at this year’s Ridge Meadows Home Show
" by Colleen Flanagan in the Maple Ridge News:

Visitors to the Ridge Meadows Home Show Family Fest are in for a weekend of magic, comedy, and ventriloquism.

One of those magicians will be The Great Gordini, known off stage at Gord Boyes, who will be taking to the stage at the show with his favourite skunky-monkey Otto.

Boyes describes his show as interactive, full of comedy, and fun for every age.


Although he has been practising magic for decades, he has been performing across the Lower Mainland for about 15 years. Every show is different for the illusionist, who loves performing for children.

“It helps keep me young. I just love being around the kids and seeing the smiles on their faces,” he said.

Maple Ridge: Shawn Farquhar

From the April 11th article "Two-time world champion of magic to perform in Maple Ridge" by Colleen Flanagan in the Maple Ridge - Pitt Meadow News:
All money from the show is going to the dry grad which will have a Roaring 20’s theme with video games, a dance and other activities being organized by Laurel Ross, head of the dry grad committee.

“They have a hypnotist coming in, which is even funnier because the hypnotist used to be my high school teacher from Victoria,” said Farquhar who is doing another show that night.

There are only 210 tickets available for the nights performance and 100 tickets have already been sold. Farquhar also donated 200 of his DVDs that will be for sale the night of.

The show is suitable to people of all ages which Farquhar says is great because, “parents can bring younger kids so they can demystify the high school in advance.”

Secrets the Magic Show takes place at 7 p.m. on Apr. 21 at Westview secondary, 20905 Wicklund Ave. in Maple Ridge.

Tickets are $20 each and can be purchased at eventbrite.ca. For more information, go to secretstheshow.com.

From the Maple Ridge News:

"Most people think magic is all about the secrets," says Farquhar, who is from Maillardville, Coquitlam but now lives in Maple Ridge.
