Lucy Darling at Vanishing Inc, Friends New York, Virtual Valentines, and Reddit

From Vanishing Inc Magic [event is February 10]:

From winning an award from the Academy of Magical Arts to...your living room! We're so excited to welcome Lucy Darling to Vanishing Inc. Showtime series. Her show is a combination of her unique style of comedy magic and the crowd work she's renowned for. Come ready to interact and be amazed by this production. Unlike any other virtual magic show, Carisa Hendrix (playing the part of her alter-ego Lucy Darling) will charm you and your family with her brand new virtual show. Then, right after the show, stick around as we interview Carisa about her vision for how to bring her character to an online audience.
