Hamilton: Séance with Nicholas Wallace

From the Doug Henning Magic Wand Club:

October 30 – November 2 

Local Magician Nicholas Wallace is starring in a theatrical production at the Theatre Aquarius in Hamilton.

Though the belief in ghosts and spirits is exceptionally old, one period in recent history stands out as something special.  In the mid to late 1800’s, millions of people became convinced that they could communicate with the dead.  For many people this belief exists to this day.

You will experience a few theatrical items that grew out of the Séance room.  You will take part in an experiment to contact the dead.  You will be scared.

Toronto: Mystery Workshop

From The Sid Lorraine Hat and Rabbit Club Facebook group:

From Ben Train:

Mystery Workshop- Tuesday October 22nd. You don't want to miss this!

Over the past 8 years I’ve brought to Toronto some of the finest talent in the world. Whether they were magic A-listers or people you hadn’t heard of, what they all had in common was that they were world-class talent.

So with that in mind… trust me.

I’m offering TEN TICKETS to a workshop with a mystery performer. That’s right, I won’t tell you who it is. What I will tell you though is that he performs regularly behind the bar in Boston, in the close-up room at the Magic Castle, and at New York's Off-Broadway Magic show, Monday Night Magic. He’s also published a number of effects and a DVD with some of the biggest magic companies in the world, and is a regular at the exclusive, invitation-only Fechter's Finger Flicking Frolic convention.

What I’m trying to say is… this guy is GOOD.
