Hi !
Welcome along to your elderly, holiday, gardening kinda MONDAY
NIGHT MAGIC e-newsletter!
Why elderly, why holiday and why gardening? Well today is May Day!
For the trivia buffs this originally was an ancient Celtic holiday
that celebrated the first spring planting of crops for the year
ahead. It was known as the "Day of Fire!"
Well one that thing that 'may' set your magical needs on 'fire' is
a visit to MNM this coming Monday at the Bleecker Street Theatre!
It's a very special week indeed with some rare and very talented
visitors in town. No farmers planting their crops but incredible
magicians planting wonderment and amusement into our audience
making their happiness 'grow' with each and every illusion and joke!
On stage you'll be amazed by ...
* Michael Chaut (Magic With A Comic Touch!)
* Master Lee (Kung Fu Magic & Comedy)
* Rocco (Magic Master & Sleight-of-Hand Champion)
Our Master of Ceremonies for the evening will be ...
* Dennis Kyriakos (The Suave Debonair Gentleman of Magic)
In close-up you'll see wonderments galore from ...
* Woody Aragón (Magician Extraordinaire From Spain!)
* David Corsaro (Up and Coming Star of Magical Marvels!)
* Michael Paul (Super Sleight-of-Hand Sensations!)
* All Performers Are Subject To Change
Wow, what an amazing 'crop' of magicians - there's nothing 'corny'
about this show only totally s'wheat' magic and a barley-corn full
of comedy. Get your spring planting done early, wash off the mud
and phone Telecharge.com (at 212-239-6200) to book your seats at a
show guaranteed to thrill and delight people of all ages (and that
includes you!).
(As you know, Telecharge.com is open 7 days a week, and the best
