Magic Tonight

Last week on Magic Tonight

We were treated to a performance from the Barefoot Prophet, Paul Pacific. It's getting colder and on this occasion, we saw Paul perform fully shoed - a rare occurrence indeed! It will come as no surprise to anyone that I was wearing shoes while I performed but no one seemed unduly concerned. If you want to come to one of our upcoming shows, tickets are available online. Readers of this blog can use the code secrets for an additional discount on checkout. Check to see who's performing next at www.magictonight.ca and try and join us for our special CFI Fundraiser on December 21.

Rogers Daytime Toronto

Earlier this week, I was on Rogers Daytime Toronto discussing Magic Tonight. I got a chance to share some magic with the host, Val Cole. Magic Tonight happens every week with different special guest performers from across the GTA. Tickets are available online. Watch the video for a special discount code to save on the cost of the show and dinner.

She mentions "duct tape" at the beginning. This is what she's talking about:

Last time on Magic Tonight

Last night on Magic Tonight, we had a very special guest - Canadian Magician of the Year, Bill Abbott.
