Vitaly Beckman’s Sensation of Magic

Sensation of Magic, includes “Super Vision,” where Beckman demonstrates his ability to read books and newspapers, from a 50-feet distance. Beckman can make people disappear from ordinary photographs and appear on another. He also demonstrates object levitation, a paintbrush that paints by itself, escapes from chains using only mind power, and makes drawings of objects turn into the real thing: a concrete example of his belief that dreams can become reality.

Tickets are $24 in advance, $26 at the door

From Away

Starring Dolores Drake

Drake’s play follows the story of Donna Molloy who returns to her Newfoundland hometown  to bury her father. Once there, she reconnects with every relative she ever had, digging up more dirt and truth than she had ever bargained for.

“In her quest to return her father’s ashes to out port Newfoundland and to discover more about her long-dead mother, she encounters a family secret that shakes her to the core. Drake brings to life the inhabitants of the village and narrates her journey with language that is both lucid and poetic. Sometimes sad, but mostly funny, add From Away to your “you’ll be glad you saw it” list.” -The Coast, Halifax

 

“From Away ,with it’s gentle laughs and deeply held secert,is an affecting look into one woman’s life.,a heartfelt tale that will linger long after you’ve left the theatre.”

-The Halifax Herald
