Ok, cheesy I know. But it is hard not be super excited about the @calgaryfringe this year. I get to be back at Festival Hall, where I made my #calgaryfringe debut back in 2019. I really enjoy spending time down in #inglewoodyyc and look forward to it being my primary stomping grounds for the week of the festival. First show is 9:30pm on Friday, July 30th.

From the July 19 Rob McConnell interview with Scott Dietrich on The 'X' Zone Radio Show.
Scott Dietrich, named Showman of the Year at the Millennium Magic Convention in Limerick, Ireland is an International Award Wining Magician. He was first recognized internationally at the age of 18 when he won 1st place honors as the youngest competitor in the Abbott's Senior Magic Competition in Colon, MI. Scott is now recognized as one of Ontario's foremost Magicians. Scott is also an accomplished sleight of hand artist having performed for clients such as Revlon, Wal-Mart & TD Bank, and such celebrities as Karen Kain, Tom Cochrane and Donavan Bailey. "Adults are just big kids, they need to be fascinated and given a reason to laugh more then anyone". "Magic is an escape. With it I'm able to create a place where people can leave their problems behind, suspend their disbelief and dream again".
