This was my first magic show. I had a magic trick book when I was a kid and the show seemed to be taken right from that book. Disappearing / appearing people in a magic box seemed to be the most used trick of the night. Ripping up and restoring paper was also prominently featured. Also lots of ta-da poses. The big thriller was escaping from under water, but every time he exhaled, a huge rush of bubbles came up from otherwise still water. I'm probably just too old and jaded to be entertained by this but I thought it would be a little better.
