Magicians to Wow Central Oregon Coast in Flurry of Shows

Published 03/23/2012

(Lincoln City, Oregon) – This time, when they say a trip to the Oregon coast town of Lincoln City is magical – they really mean it. March 28 – 31 is the “It's No Illusion” festival of magic, featuring live performances of various up and comers in the slight-of-hand world, such as Matt Baker & Steve Hamilton, Hart Keene, Joe Black and Heather Pearl. The magicians will roam throughout the crowd at the Lincoln City Cultural Center, teaching guests tricks and illusions (above: magician Steve Hamilton).

Then for kids, there's even a Magic Camp held on those mornings, so spring breakers can get a headstart on a new career.

Seattle's Matt Baker is a Guinness World Record holder, and has performed his comedy stunt show in over 14 countries. He's been on Last Comic Standing and America’s Got Talent, and has won numerous awards out of Washington state. He's been on the stage for 20 years.

Joe Black has been a magician, stage hypnotist and hypnotherapist for 15 years.
