The Magic of Christmas

Oct. 22, 2008 / BUCKSPORT, MAINE

MAGICIANS BRING SANTA TO BUCKSPORT

Christmas is the most magical time of the year. Santa Claus and his elves work year-round to make toys for children all over the world. On Christmas Eve, Santa flies through the air in his magical sleigh to deliver the toys. Maine's magicians fondly recall their first encounters with the Santa's magic on Christmas. Many got their introduction to the art when a magic set first appeared under the Christmas tree.

On Saturday, December 6, magicians from Ring 362 of the International Brotherhood of Magicians will welcome Santa to Bucksport, Maine, at the Alamo Theatre as part of The Magic of Christmas. Magicians Danny Baker, Professor Miller, and Dr. Wilson will draw on their love of Christmas to make this show a treasured memory for all who attend.

Magicians are very good at keeping secrets, but some details of the show have slipped out. The magicians will use magic to create a special Christmas Cake, loads of candy, and a giant enchanted Gingerbread House on stage. Toys will come to life and perform. Santa Claus himself will magically appear at the end of the show with gifts for all the children in the audience.

The Magic of Christmas will appear for one performance only at the Alamo Theatre in Bucksport on Saturday, December 6, at 2:00 pm. General admission tickets, available on the day of the show, are $8 for all ages. The proceeds will benefit Ring 362 of the International Brotherhood of Magicians, a nonprofit group for the promotion of the magical arts.

TICKETS ON SALE FOR CHRISTMAS MAGIC SHOW

Candy made by magic, toys that come to life, and the magical appearance of Santa Claus himself with gifts for all - these are a few of the wonders that will appear at the Alamo Theatre in Bucksport, Maine, as part of The Magic of Christmas, a magic show for the whole family on Saturday, December 6 at 2:00 pm. The show is the creation of Ring 362 of the International Brotherhood of Magicians, a nonprofit group for the promotion of the magical arts.

Three magicians will appear in The Magic of Christmas. Danny Baker of Brewer, Maine's funniest magician, will work some of the wonders that have made him Maine's most popular birthday party magician. Professor Miller of Blue Hill will perform his award-winning routine with the Chinese Rings, in which rings of solid metal link and unlink by magic. Dr. Wilson of Bar Harbor, a magical chef, will create cakes and candy by magic. The three magicians have many other surprises that they are keeping secret.

No Christmas show would be complete without an appearance by Santa Claus. Santa is taking time from his busy schedule to appear in the show, because Christmas is the most magical time of the year. He remembers starting each of the three magicians on their performing careers with the gift of a magic set. Santa will have a big sack of toys and games to give away, and promises a gift to everyone who attends the show.

Advance tickets for The Magic of Christmas are available at Bittersweet Gift Shop in Bucksport. General admission tickets are $8 for all ages; the doors open at 1:30 pm on December 6. Due to the limited seating capacity of the Alamo Theatre, the purchase of tickets in advance is recommended. Ticket sales benefit Ring 362 of the International Brotherhood of Magicians.
