magic is about honesty
everything here is true
except for the bits I made up
Thank you to everyone who attended our special spring break performance of Magic & Martini at Grand Spirits. We also perform in Toronto and Oakville and the question I'm asked most often is "Where is Grand Valley?"
Well... tucked away in a gorgeous middle of nowhere inside of what looks like a school is one of my favourite spots in the world to do a magic show.
Here are some photos from our latest performance courtesy of Waled Hassansay.
Thank you to everyone who attended last night's sold out performance of Magic & Martini. It was the largest show we've ever had in Oakville and we had an incredible night. Here are a few photos of the night courtesy of Waled Hassanzay.

I was in Acton last weekend doing a special fundraiser for Heritage Acton. It was a gorgeous space and a wonderful audience and we had a great time.
I was a little surprised to wake up to an email saying that our fundraiser made the front page of the local newspaper, The New Tanner:

From the review:
“James Alan amazed and amused, baffled and confused, but mostly delighted and entertained the audience at the Acton Town Hall Centre last Saturday night, with his Magic and Martini show. The full house enjoyed dinner, cocktails, and an evening of playful sleight of hand puzzles, loopy rope entanglements, and hilarious audience participation.”

The Newest Trick in the Book, a special show put on every week by the Toronto Magic Company. It's hosted by the zany and magical Jonah Babins (who uses words like "bonkers" and "bonanzos" in everyday conversation.)
It's a safe place for magicians to try out new material, and always a great deal of fun to go to. I try to make it out even when I'm not performing. The best part of all, it's a pay-whatever-you-feel-like show.
Tuesday night, I was on with Leigh Beadon, Ryan Brown and William West. Here are some photos from the night, courtesy of Philip Bowser.
