As seen on NBC’s top rated America’s Got Talent TV Show, the Crawford County Community Concert Association announces the “Halloween Magic of the Night” featuring illusionist Stephen Knight in an original haunted magic show filled with chills and thrills for the whole family.
Inspired by the traveling midnight ghost shows of the 1930s through 1960s, this spectacular production features Halloween-themed illusions and magical ghostly phenomena along with specialized lighting, music and special effects to provide an awe-inspiring, one-of-a-kind theatrical experience.
During Magic of the Night, Stephen transforms skeletons into humans, causes a witch to float in mid-air and shares the tales of several “haunted” artifacts with the audience. There is plenty of comedy as well, such as when one young audience member is invited to a magic laboratory to create his very own monster, or when Stephen tries on his Halloween costume for a disco-themed illusion! And Harry Houdini – the American magician who died on October 31, 1926 – is remembered as Stephen and his assistant perform the classic Metamorphosis illusion.
Stephen has spent over twenty years perfecting his craft and Magic of the Night features his most amazing illusions. The special effects and props featured in his show are spooky – not bloody or gory – making this the perfect “family fright” for adults and children to enjoy together. This 90 minute “school night” show will not have an intermission and will conclude at about 8:30 p.m.
Show Selection Chair Linda Leyda stated that Stephen Knight is one of magic’s premier entertainers – a gifted performer who uses comedy, drama, storytelling and theatrical technology to create a truly spellbinding experience. See http://stephenknightmagic.com for more information.
