This just in all the way from the bright lights of Hollywood:

Hello from Hollywood!

Thought you and your readers might like to know that Hollywood's Magic Castle is being mentioned on tomorrow's edition (Friday, August 31st) of Dave's Hollywood Minute. There's a quick story about actor Jason Alexander being a magician and having performed there. You can visit http://www.hollywoodminute.us/podcast to hear the show if it's not carried on a radio station in your area (or find it at the iTunes music store).

Hope you're having a fantastic day.

All the best!
David Fuller

Sideshow Illusions is the new site to accompany Jon Marshall's new venture. Hull Magicians' Circle members have enjoyed these marvels for the last few years as part of our Annual Dinner. Jon and his team have been working hard to take these attractions on the road and have been travelling to society dinners and functions across the country. Recently they got invited to take part in the Admission All Classes event in Blackpool as part of the Cabinet of Curiosities show. On that page you can hear a podcast from Vanessa Toulmin which features Jon talking about the sideshows.

If you are interested in watching some footage there are a few clips on YouTube a montage sideshow showreel, a clip of the headless lady and a clip of Voltini & Electra.
