Niagara Falls: Wonders with Greg Frewin and Christian Mascia [Summer 2023]

From the July 26th Facebook post by the Greg Frewin Theatrical Centre:

We appreciate your curiosity about the name change from 'Wonder' to 'Wonders.' The reason for this change is that our main magician, Greg Frewin, has made a much-anticipated return to the Greg Frewin Theatre for a limited time. [Editor's note: emphasis ours.] While the essence of the magic show remains the same, we've decided to call it 'Wonders' to signify that it now features multiple magicians, including the incredible talents of Greg Frewin himself. This update allows us to showcase a diverse range of magical performances, making the show even more captivating and awe-inspiring for our audiences. We hope you'll join us for an unforgettable experience full of Wonders!"

Thank you for your interest! The show is playing all summer long at the Greg Frewin Theatrical Centre in Niagara Falls. You can book tickets and find more information on our website: https://gregfrewintheatre.com/buy-tickets.html the show and your visit to Niagara Falls!

Edmonton: Magic at K-Days [Jul 21 - 30]

From K-Days:

Aytahn Ross
The Great Balanzo turns the everyday into an adventure with circus & comedy for all ages. A modern show with a classic feel that’s full of circus tricks, vaudeville classics, a touch of magic, all wrapped up in a silly elegance! Balanzo is played by physical actor and circus artist, Aytahn Ross, who’s been seen live by over a million people in 13 countries around the world. He’s had repeat invitations to Just for Laughs, performed solo for the Governor General of Canada, and performed with the Edmonton Symphony Orchestra.

The Cristal Palace Spiegeltent
Come one, come all. Join Firefly Theatre & Circus in the timeless, evocative, eclectic world inside the Cristal Palace—YEG's first Spiegeltent. Have a pre-show tipple in the Spiegel Garden, and stay a while. The Spiegeltroupe will entertain, thrill, and make you smile.

This homegrown cast of veteran cabaret and circus all-stars have joined forces to astound and amaze. Aerial artists swirl overhead, jokesters joke, burlesque dancers shimmy, contortionists twist, a magician enchants, and drag queens slay.

From the July 21st Facebook post by Billy Kidd:

It's not often Canada gets Variety/Cabaret or Culture especially in the form of a Spiegeltent. For 10 shows only come see the Great Great Spiegel Spectacular at K-Days Edmonton. I've flown in just for this because  Firefly Theatre and Circus rocks and I love working with them!
