This week on Magic Tonight

On this week's show at the Crimson Lounge downtown, I'll be joined by comedy magician extraordinaire, Chris Westfall. Chris appeared for a month here with his partner in absurdity Chris Mayhew performing Sketchy Magic and he's about to embark on a Canada-wide tour of his family show, Chris Westfall and the Porcelain Princess. Chris is always funny and always zany and we're delighted to unleash him for you this Sunday. Tickets are available for our September dates at www.MagicTonight.ca/tickets. We have spots for Toronto and a very limited number for the Franklin House in Mississauga. Readers of this blog can use the code reality for a discount on the price of tickets and dinner when purchasing online.

Last week on Magic Tonight

Last night's show at the Crimson Lounge in Toronto was creepier than usual. Mysterion was in strange form (and of course, I mean that in a good way.) He was corrupting the youth, contacting the dead and just generally weirding people out. I'm not sure if that child actually went home and did his satanic colouring, but we can be on the lookout for dark clouds and bad omens today. We're gearing up for the fall season. Currently all of our shows in Missisauga for September are sold out but we have shows in Toronto with seats available.

This Sunday on Magic Tonight

Our special guest this weekend on Magic Tonight in Toronto is the inimitably creepy Mysterion. A psychedelically coiffed psychic who will mess with your mind and make you question your most deeply held fashion choices. Mysterion has been on this show, and it's progenitors, more times than I care to count. He is always entertaining, always delightful and unavoidably strange. Tickets for the show are available on our site.

Magic Tonight Update

While this weekend's show is already sold out and this post potentially serves no purpose except to aggravate those people who don't have tickets, we're pleased to announce an additional special guest, Jason Verners. Jason is visiting from British Columbia and asked if he could be on the show. And as anyone who knows me, I have a great deal of difficulty saying no to anyone wearing a crushed velvet jacket. The reason he's in town is because every year in a slightly secret location not too far from Toronto, young magicians gather at Sorcerer's Safari, where they are able to stay isolated from society where it is less likely an unsuspecting bystander will become lost and wander to close and be asked to select a playing card.

Magic Tonight continues into the fall at the Crimson Lounge in Toronto. Readers of this blog can use the code reality for a discount on the price of tickets and dinner when purchasing online.

This week's show (which is un/fortunately sold out) features the special guest mind reading of Ron Guttman. Ron performs some rather astonishing interactive explorations of clairvoyance, divination, prognostication and jiggery-pokery. He's been a guest on the show a few times before. Unfortunately, we can't accommodate any more guests for this Sunday's show, but tickets for future events are available at www.MagicTonight.ca/tickets.

Last week on Magic Tonight

We had a wonderfully fun time. As producers go, I'm a little bit young. As such, I don't really have what it takes to stand up to veterans of the business and so people who have been doing this for a long time essentially get to do whatever they want on my show because I don't really have the guts to tell them no. This is made slightly worse when the people happen to be taller than me (which is relatively hard to accomplish.) So when the gypsy philosopher David Peck and the rubber-chicken master Matt DiSero decided they wanted to try something zany and off the wall, I was nervous. I've never seen grown men get so excited over a Jay Sankey trick....
