Magic 101 Show & Class

There are illusionists who escape from locked tanks of water, and others who make national landmarks vanish into thin air. But the heart of any magic trick is what the pros call prestidigitation: a.k.a sleight of hand. Join internationally renowned magician Ming Da for a captivating one-hour online experience. Ming will amaze you with feats that’ll have you asking, How’d he do that?—and then he’ll take you behind the curtain to answer that very question.

The first half-hour will be an engaging performance in which audience participation is absolutely encouraged (no need to mute your mic for this virtual gathering). In the second half-hour, Ming will walk you step-by-step through tricks that even total newbies will be able to perform with everyday items, like a deck of cards, toothpicks, and coins.

All are welcome, including participants aged 16 and up (accompanied by a grown-up, please). With a skilled and enchanting performer as magical mentor, this experience also makes a fascinating gift for anyone who’s celebrating a birthday, eager to learn a few thrilling ice-breakers, or just intrigued by the age-old art of abracadabra.
