Miranda Allen vs straitjacket
From the September 8th Facebook post from Miranda Allen Entertainment:
Hanging by her ankles 20 feet in the air, Miranda must escape from a straitjacket , free her feet, and find her way to the floor in three minutes. The escape is hastened by the Specter of Consequences, Carisa Hendrix, and hoisted by Chris The Rigging Guy.
If you'd like to watch the consequences of this escape, go to:

Toronto: Mysterion Store Visit & Cryptid Book Test
From the September 10th Facebook post by Jeff Pinsky:
(Limit of 5 people in Store at a time)
The Cryptids - $80 (SPECIAL PRICE!)Mysterion has been telling us about this idea for some time, and it's finally happened! And he's got a special offer for you! Have you ever wanted to read minds? This book will give you that power.
Combining several different book test methodologies into a compact prop, The Cryptids is a miracle just waiting to happen! Here's some of what you can do with it:
- Have any long word remembered, and slowly reveal the word letter by letter! This is the Mother-of-All Book Tests concept.
- Have a word peeked at and instantly know it (variation of the flashback principle)
- Ability to force a word and have it appear on a freely selected page
- Reveal that you knew which Cryptid from a list of 100 in the book you knew would be 'randomly' selected
- With a map of locations for famous Cryptids, they can take a journey to these exotic places yet you always know where they've ended up!
You get all of these great magic methods and more! The book can actually be examined and read. Also, by using a larger font you don't have to worry about your spectator not being able to see the word they've chosen. And the subject of the book is one that appeals to all ages and performing venues. Mysterion will be demonstrating the book during his visit and answering any questions you might have. He's also offered us a GREAT DEAL! The book normally retails for $99 US, but he's offering it to you for only $80 Canadian! That's a significant saving!
We look forward to seeing you!

St. Catharines: Matt DiSero at Showtime Comedy and Entertainment
From the September 5th Facebook post by Matt DiSero:
Ontario: I'll be performing LIVE at Showtime Comedy and Entertainment Sept 18 & 19.
I hear there's plexiglass between me and the audience, so it's like visiting Hannibal Lecter.
Remember the rules: Do not touch or approach the glass. You pass me nothing but soft paper. No pencils or pens. No staples or paperclips in the paper. Use the sliding food carrier. If I attempt to pass you anything, do not accept it. Do you understand me? -- Yes Doctor Chilton.
Who wants to be my Clarice Starling?
