From To Do Canada:
Your featured performers are:
Rob Fishbaum: “Fish the Magish” is known for his witty magic style, resembling that of Las Vegas magician Mac King. His act is full of laughs, audience participation, and absolutely amazing magic tricks. His sold-out show was an absolute hit at the Toronto Fringe this past year, so here is your chance to see him!
Ken Pham: He is a viral social media magician who has taken his act from behing the screen to the live stage. He’s performed all over Canada, and even in Las Vegas! His show is full of illusions, mind reading, and a whole lot of laughter!

From IBM Ring 17:
Chung has been a magician for over two decades with a love for close-up and cards. Though he's mostly stayed out of the spotlight, he has played a big part in crafting the Montreal magic scene into what it is today.
...
Slim is the founder of the Slim Card Co. In 2012, after meeting with a retired Las Vegas hustler who showed him the works on card trimming, he started making gaff playing cards and dice for magicians who needed that little extra special for their performances.
...
Their work has appeared in the UK magazine Operandi, and they were both featured in Issue 1 of Conundrum.
You won't want to miss this one. As we were organizing this event, Chung said to us recently, “I don't want to give full details because like a magic show, we like to build a little mystery into the thing.” Shhhhhhhh!
