Cambridge: Freddy Fusion Science Magic Show [Mar 13 - 14]

From the February 12th article "Children's entertainer to fuse science, magic at Cambridge show" in Cambridge Today:

“Children and parents alike will be on the edge of their seats,” says Alex Mustakas, artistic director of Drayton Entertainment. “The Freddy Fusion Science Magic Show is the perfect activity for the whole family to enjoy this March Break.”

The show has played at multiple Drayton Entertainment venues over the years, and sells out each time due to its jaw-dropping experiments, tricks, and other exciting surprises.

The most sought-after science/magic educator in North America and a dominant force in the children’s entertainment industry, Freddy Fusion is a wild combination of author, inventor, performer, and TV personality.

A charismatic illusionist whose presentations combine the improbable with the educational, the man behind the science-goggles is Andrew Pogson. His remarkable sense of visual humour has taken the show throughout Canada, the United States and 28 other countries.
