Luc Langevin has Vegas in his sights!

From le journal de quebec:

Cette première tournée sera colossale, promet encore Luc Langevin, qui s’entourera de créateurs identifiés au Cirque du Soleil pour apporter un emballage visuel, qui se démarquera. Il apportera donc de nouveaux numéros, en évitant les clichés des habituels spectacles de magie. « Non, je n’aurai pas une aguichante assistante à mes côtés, dit-il en riant. Je serai seul en scène; à l’occasion, des techniciens graviteront bien sûr autour de moi. »

Whitby: The Amazing Kreskin

From Class Act Dinner Theatre:

Back At Class Act for the 11th exciting time [Thursday Sept 13th]
 

This icon of thought transference developed a mental test that has become the highlight of his performances all over the world. This signature piece has Kreskin requesting that his check be hidden somewhere within the venue he is appearing. If he fails to find it, he will forfeit his fee.
 

His shows are mind boggling and will leave the audience trying to figure out how he Does it!

Alex Kazam steals mayor's watch

During the opening ceremonies to the Niagara Falls Buskerfest, Alex Kazam steals the mayor's watch!

Tony Chris wins gold!

From The Now:

He can turn a handkerchief into a wand, make a beer bottle disappear into thin air, or transport a playing card across a room without even touching it.


Just don't ask noted mentalist and magician Tony Chris how he does it.


"When people ask, 'How do you that?' I respond with 'Very well, I thought,'" he said.
 

That tongue-in-cheek approach, combined with a keen knack for sleight of hand, helped the 44-year-old Coquitlam resident win a gold medal at the recent Pacific Coast Association of Magicians convention in Seattle.

Congratulations Tony!
