Abracadabra acts

We can’t remember the last magic show to come to town. So we’re excited to have An Evening of Magic at the Hoogland Center for the Arts, June 7. Six nationally known magicians are appearing, including 17-year-old Trent James. Touted as having a “fresh approach to magic, charismatic personality and hip style” that has won him numerous awards, including the 2013 Peoples Choice and Second Place winner of the Society of American Magicians International Stage Contest, James is sure to mesmerize audiences. Also featured are Michael Baker, Magic Castle regular Tom Burgoon, cutting-edge illusionist Sean Bogunia, magic man and funny talker David Ginn and Springfield’s-own comedy juggler Brian Pankey. Presented by the International Brotherhood of Magicians Ring 239.
