Renowned US ma­gi­cian Jeff McBride is com­ing to T&T for the first time to per­form in a two-day event ti­tled The Ex­treme Mag­ic Show. It's card­ed to come off on June 23 and 24 at the Cen­tre of Ex­cel­lence in Ma­coya. Trinidad Broad­cast­ing Com­pa­ny (TBC) rep­re­sen­ta­tive Joel "Sig­nal to Noise" Mor­ris says pa­trons can ex­pect an A-class pro­duc­tion. TBC is the of­fi­cial net­work for the event. Mor­ris says the net­work is proud to be as­so­ci­at­ed with McBride's first vis­it to T&T. McBride has set sev­er­al records, ac­cord­ing to the Guin­ness Book of World Records, and is al­so the win­ner of nu­mer­ous awards, in­clud­ing recog­ni­tion by the Acad­e­my of Mag­i­cal Arts and the So­ci­ety of Amer­i­can Ma­gi­cians. He al­so copped the Ma­gi­cian of the Year ti­tle in the In­ter­na­tion­al Grand Prix of Mag­ic. McBride's bi­og­ra­phy says he pos­sess­es su­pe­ri­or abil­i­ties in ma­nip­u­la­tion dex­ter­i­ty. He is fa­mous for his sleight-of-hands skills, as well as his mas­ter ma­nip­u­la­tion of the cards.

The il­lu­sion­ist and fire eater can lev­i­tate on beams of light and one of his "must-sees" is his abil­i­ty to gen­er­ate snow­storms of rice pa­per from his hand. He has worked along­side Di­ana Ross, Tina Turn­er, and ma­gi­cian Criss An­gel, among oth­ers. McBride is based in Las Ve­gas, Neva­da and is the founder of the McBride Mag­ic and Mys­tery School. McBride is ex­pect­ed to ap­pear on the CNC3 morn­ing show to­mor­row, and will al­so be in­ter­viewed on 95.1FM, Sangeet Ra­dio 106.1FM and Vibe City 105.1FM. Billed to share the stage are lo­cal ma­gi­cian Hugo Del Rio and co­me­di­an Learie Joseph. Tick­ets for the event are avail­able at Guardian Me­dia Ltd (GML), St Vin­cent Street, Port-of-Spain, and a va­ri­ety of oth­er lo­ca­tions na­tion­wide.
