Best Magician n the World? My Vote: Jeff McBride
Saturday night Appleton, Wisconsin was blessed with one of the highest quality magic shows I've seen as part of the Houdini Days gathering of magicians and magic-lovers in this town, the boyhood home of Houdini. The highlight of the show was the hour-plus finale by Jeff McBride (see McBrideMagic.com). What am amazing artist he is! He combines the beaty and power of Japanese theater, mime, dance, and other fields into a delightful and mysterious magic show that is far more beautiful and entertaining than one would ever expect from a magic show. Much more than tricks!!
I had the privilege of attending a 5-hour master class for magicians taught by Jeff McBride on Friday, Sept. 3. WOW! He's an amazing person, very warm and incredibly talented who understands so much about the art and profession. If you're interested in magic, I would strongly recommend the videe tapes or DVDs that he has produced, and be sure to see one of his shows.
