Last Week on Magic Tonight

Some incredible guests on the show, and some very fun audiences. Thanks to everyone who attended the show. This week's shows featured Michael Close, Matt DiSero & Jason Palter. We have just three weeks left at the Franklin House in Mississauga before we break for the summer so if you haven't seen the show yet, please take a peek at what you've been missing and I hope you can join us.

This week on Magic Tonight

Coming up on the show - some wonderful guests. On Thursday, the hilarious and charming Matt DiSero (and his associate Hartnell the chicken... go figure) along with the legendary sleight of hand creator and joke teller Michael Close.

On Sunday, Jason Palter, winner of the Canadian Event Industry's "Entertainer of the Year" award - a zany performer who has no setting between high and off.

Last week on Magic Tonight

Very strange weather this week with a mix of hot hot hot and wet wet wet. All of which just serves to remind of of why I call myself an indoor magician. But we had a wonderful time with our audiences on Magic Tonight with special guests Phil Pivnick, Ben Train and Chris Mayhew. If you haven't seen our show, take a look at some of the fun you missed! And if you recognize yourself or your friends, in any of the photos, feel free to share them.

New Professional Site

This has become the month of website updates. First we launched www.MagicTonight.ca, then did a major overhaul at www.Abracadabaret.com. Now, my professional site — the one I use for my private and corporate magic — has a fresh new look as well. So take a look over at www.JamesAlan.ca (proudly Canadian). It's still new so if you spot any issues, please let me know.

SOULO Theatre Festival Gallery

I wear many hats.* *That's a metaphor. I never wear real hats, they mess up my hair

One such hat is as the general manager for the SOULO Theatre Festival which presents a weekend of exceptional one-person shows and a series of seminars and panel discussions teaching actors how to present their own material. From behind the scenes it's an exhausting four days, but also a very uplifting, inspiring and entertaining four days.

Take a look at what we got up to down at the Red Sandcastle Theatre in Toronto.

Last week on Magic Tonight

So my friend and colleague in magic, Chris Mayhew, was supposed to host while I was off organizing the Soulo Theatre Festival. When I asked how the show went, I was sent this photo. Apparently I need to have a little talk with Mr. Mayhew. Magic Tonight is performed weekly in Mississauga & Toronto.
