PRESTO! The Magic of Intuition
“a chance to see an expert clown at work” -Liz Nicholles
Presto! The Great Lambrusco turns scarves into eggs! Coins appear from thin air, and a cupcake gets baked in a shoe! But what’s really happening here? Can we believe everything we see? In this comedic unfolding, the audience finds out that illusions are not reality, and that to find true magic, we must slow down, observe, and listen.
Acclaimed performing artist Nayana Fielkov has performed at festivals and venues across the countrywith her genre-bending approach to theatre. She is co-creator of award-winning RAGMOP Theatre, Habitats, Underbelly, and The Myrtle Sisters, and is a founding member of the Dusty Flowerpot Cabaret.
Joining her is Jack Garton:
Jack plays the accordion and the trumpet both separately and together! Jack has performed solo and with many beloved bands and theatre companies throughout North America and Europe, and featured recently in the Firehall Arts Centre’s production of Chelsea Hotel: The SongsOf Leonard Cohen (Feb 2024).
Presto! was created in residency at the Massey Theatre in New Westminster. It has toured to Whitehorse Yukon and to schools around BC.
