Welcoming a new Friend: Matt DiSero
Please join me in welcoming our newest Friend, Matt DiSero!
I first met Matt during the early days of the Magical Arts Festival in Toronto somewhere around the turn of the century. I remember walking to a show at Big Daddy's Crab Shack And Oyster Bar from the parking lot near The Charlotte Room and having the good fortune to have as company Matt, Julie Eng, and David Peck.
I've been joyfully entertained by Matt (and Hartnell) at numerous "Magic Tonight" events and other such productions in and around the Toronto area.
You may have seen Matt on the 2016 season of Penn and Teller's Fool Us, or heard him interviewed by David Peck or the "Discourse in Magic" crew. You can check out his blog at http://www.mattdisero.com/blog/
Thank you Matt, for befriending Canada's Magic!

Niagara Falls: David DaVinci at the Greg Frewin Theatre SEP 28 - OCT 13
Word on the street is that David DaVinci will be back in Niagara Falls SEP 28 - OCT 13!
From the Greg Frewin Theatre:
From the Greg Frewin Theatre:
Due to Greg Frewin’s international travel and television performance schedule* there will be times when throughout the calendar year, fellow magician David DaVinci will step into Greg’s shoes and perform our award-winning WILD Magic show.
David’s first dove illusion was taught to him intimately by Greg and the two have continued their love and passion creating awe-inspiring magic together. David has mentored under the professional guidance and leadership of Greg Frewin well over a period of twenty years; sharing both stage and audience as one.
When David is performing on the Greg Frewin Theatre stage, prepare to be mystified by mind boggling illusions and jaw dropping magic, seamlessly fused with exotic parrots that materialize from thin air. You’ll laugh, you’ll cheer, and your jaw will hit the floor, as David DaVinci presents his interpretation of the WILD Magic Show through the age-old art of magic and illusions, in “Thrillusionist!”
