Granville Island: Really Definitely True Tour [Sep 5 - 15]

From the September 4th article "Coquitlam showman wants you to question Granville Island tour" by Janis Cleugh in Vancouver is Awesome:

With Mike Norden, an award-winning children’s magician from Mission who is also with the Fraser Magic Company, of which Teszka is president, Teszka scripted a narrative that takes visitors around Granville Island — home to the annual Vancouver Fringe Festival.

Titled the Really Definitely True Tour, the 90-minute walking excursion combines fake storytelling with magic that’s suitable for all ages; the capacity is 20 people per show, which opens Thursday, Sept. 5 and runs for the full length of the VFF with 14 iterations at various times, starting at the Alder Bay Dock.

Michael Kras: Magic & Illusion Lead for Harry Potter and the Cursed Child (NA)

Congratulations Michael!

 

From the August 22nd Instagram post by Michael Kras:

Some exciting news: I’ve landed in New York because tomorrow, I begin my new job as the Magic & Illusion Lead for the North American Tour of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

This is my first-ever national tour and I’m so eager to get to return to this world after serving on the magic direction team for the Canadian premiere.

I’m only in NYC for a heartbeat before flying to Chicago for tech and previews, and then I’ll be looking after the show as it tours on to Los Angeles, Washington, and well beyond.

LET’S GO 🪄
