David Merry in the The London Free Press

Meanwhile, Merry is also a regular on Too Much Information, and has toured with Wing and Collins several times.

“They are two of my oldest friends,” said Merry, who started his career as a magician.

“I discovered very early in my career that people won’t walk across the street for magic, but they will for comedy. So, I perform a bit of a hybrid. I’ll open with some stand-up, the do a blend of comedy with magic.”

Montreal: Ray Kosby

When: Sunday June 14, 1pm Where: The Comedy Nest
While Ray is known mainly for his amazing contributions to the field of card magic (including the legendary “Ray’s Rise”), he is also one of the most creative close-up magicians you will ever see. He comes up with original and often offbeat effects and his methods are just as wild. The strength behind his magic is that his routines will fool you. Audiences gasp at his effects — when they are not speechless all they can say is, WOW! When watching Ray’s magic, he will absolutely fool you — you will have no clue as to how he accomplishes these impossibilities. From cards to coins to fruit and pretzels, and from nearly self-working to incredible technique, Ray’s magic runs the gamut. This is your opportunity to meet and learn from a modern master of close-up in his first ever Montreal lecture.
