“Illusions, magic tricks, humor, and storytelling”
– TotalTheater.com
Clearly Invisible… Magic Up Close with Carl Seiger is playing for one final week in the John C. Court Cabaret. Come see what The Observer calls a “Slick performance” now through August 3.
The show combines illusion, jazz, and storytelling. While reminiscing about his life as a magician, Seiger invites audiences to find out what’s up his sleeves as he performs sleight of hand up close. There is magic, and then there is Magic. Interactive in every sense of the word, Clearly Invisible combines illusion, music, and humor to stretch the boundaries of conventional theatre.

“Engaging”
– Sarasota Herald-Tribune
“Hold unflagging attention throughout”
– TotalTheater.com
“Excellent physical acting”
– The Observer
The U.S. Premiere of Taking Shakespeare by John Murrell opened this past week in the Gompertz Theatre and runs through August 17.
Who appreciates Shakespeare anymore? Murph sure doesn’t, and seeks out an older Shakespeare scholar, to bring the Bard’s words to life. This enchanting, eccentric journey creates a beautiful dichotomy between Shakespeare’s verse and today’s language. Is it possible for this avid video-game lover to love Shakespeare?
