“Mysteries & Lies”, The Toronto Fringe Festival, Tarragon Theatre, Toronto, ON

Gord and I saw Mysteries & Lies with James Alan, part of the Toronto Fringe Festival, this evening at the Sweet Action Theatre at Youngspace (Shaw Street, north of Queen Street W). 

Some people lie to themselves and say magic isn't real. Some people lie to themselves and say that it is. James Alan—an actual magician—creates an unrepeatable, interactive hour; built live, in the room, with you. Your choices will leave you lying awake in bed at three o’clock in the morning wondering if the people in charge of the universe are personally messing with you.

Magicians always amaze me and I’m still trying to figure out how James Alan did what he did. Fun show with lots of audience participation and worth seeing!
