On October 28th, Champions in the Workplace sponsored an afternoon magic show by Ken McCreedy for seniors in St. Catharines at the Gibson Road Older Adults Centre. Over 100 people enjoyed a full show of classic magic by a true professional. Ken was perfect - funny, colourful and very entertaining. Several members of our Fonthill Magic Circle also attended to support our service to senior citizens in St. Catharines. The Community Centre promoted the show and provided the venue - a beautiful hall with a well-equipped stage.
Thank you John for guest posting at Canada's Magic!
KOP and I had the pleasure of seeing
Marion and Ted Outerbridge
perform their show "Mysteries of the Keyhole House" at the
Milton Centre for the Arts.
[As an aside, we encourage you to go and see a show at this fabulous 500 seat theatre. It's approximately 25 minutes west of Toronto's western border. The facilities are modern and spacious. On the lower level, it appears that all seats have amazing sight lines. (We didn't venture up to the balcony.) The seats are a little bit wider than standard theatre seats, which makes them very comfortable! Parking is free and plentiful.]
[Additionally, this is the first magic show we've been to where there's been an ASL interpreter available. The interpreter was easily seen and unobtrusive. They did not distract from the show. There appeared to be quite a few folks in the audience fluent in sign language. I'm sure the service was well appreciated!]
Here are some random thoughts that came to mind while watching Ted and Marion share some fascinating stories about their current home and the individuals who had previously lived there:
We think you'll enjoy "Mysteries of the Keyhole House" as much as we did!
