CFI Canada Winter Solstice Celebration (Part 1)

Last night on Magic Tonight, we hosted a special fundraiser for CFI Canada. We celebrated the Winter Solstice with a special performance by Michael Close, and a podcast taping with David Peck. Thanks to the Centre for Inquiry for rounding up such a wonderful group of people. We set the record for the largest audience we've ever had at the show!

Magic at momondays

Monday night, I had the opportunity to perform at the Toronto momondays. This monthly gathering at the Hard Rock Cafe in Toronto features speakers on a wide range of topics. I just got to do magic. Definitely one of the warmest audiences I've gotten to perform for in recent memory - especially considering it was a packed room and it was a long event. The next event is on Monday, January 26, 2015.

Last Sunday on Magic Tonight

Fresh from his performances at the World Famous Magic Castle in Hollywood and special appearances in the vicinity of Broadway, we got to see Chris Mayhew's new show, Mayhew Mayhem. It was a sold out house; the largest we've had since the space was renovated to increase the seating capacity. Here are a few highlights:

We have a new show every week with different special guests. For more information and tickets, visit www.magictonight.ca. Readers of the blog can use the code secrets for a special discount online.

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.

Next Monday, December 15, I'll be appearing at momondays where a group of people put story-telling into a blender. Add a dash of personal growth & transformation, and drop in a load of laughs. Mix in real, live music, and great conversation with some of the nicest people on the planet, then push the ‘high’ setting… and out comes momondays! It's like a variety show bouncing off the walls of personal story-telling! I'll be performing and encouraging people to look at the world in strange and unusual ways.

We're at the Hard Rock Cafe at Dundas Square. Advance tickets are $10.00 online (or $20 at the door). Buy Tickets Online

Also appearing are Ahmed Duranai, Anya Romanova, Carmelia Ray, Brian Campkin and Richard Zinck.
