Free Magic Show
The Old Forge Library, 220 Crosby Blvd., invites you to the3 Free Magic show and shoot workshop with Tjhe Great & powerful Dave! Both the young and the young-at-heart are welcome to chase the winter blues away with some magic! The library will host A Free Magic Show with ‘The Great & Powerful Dave’ on Tuesday, February 4 at 5:30 p.m. for a forty-five minute library magic show followed by a short magic workshop.
Dave has visited Old Forge twice and performs at summer reading programs at libraries all over the state, always with a positive audience response. He presents a high-energy show packed with magic, comedy, puppets, and audience participation. His shows run the gamut from celebrating reading, and helping to build character, to teaching non-violent responses to bullying in a fun, upbeat way that kids can relate to, and that adults find entertaining.
Dave became interested in magic as a child growing up in western New York. He then spent several years as a character actor on Philadelphia-area stages, then as a TV & film actor in Hollywood before returning to New York state to raise his family. Dave has appeared in over 50 TV episodes and movies, including Seinfeld, Friends, Will & Grace, and Legally Blonde.
The program is free and open to all. For planning purposes, you are encouraged to call the library (315-369-6008) or e-mail (oldforge@midyork.org) to reserve a spot. Walk-ins are also welcome.
