Magic & Storytelling
I love to weave stories and tales into my magic. This photo was shot at the 2021 MN Renaissance Festival by Darin Jensen. The theme of the magical effect I am performing here is the classic Magician vs the Devil. The story is told in the words of a poem. I titled it The Young Lad and the Mysterious Stranger. Captured in this photo is the moment the young lad sells his soul to the Devil in exchange for incredible magical abilities. In the end he outsmarts and beats the Devil at his own game with some incredible card magic.
Over my many years of performing this style of magic I have found the audience gets drawn into the magic, they begin to care about what is happening, they are engaged, enriched, enchanted.

Goodness, you’re right in my neighborhood! I’ll try to say hello when I get dragged out to the Ren fair by my son

I’m sorry to say I won’t be there this year. I had too many other shows that landed on festival weekends. I will be doing street magic at the Edina Torchlight Sousa Band Concert, it’s at Centennial Lakes Pavilion, August 13th.
