You won't want to miss this exciting performance suitable for the whole family!

About the Presenter: Over the past three decades, Peter Wood has been perfecting his skills as a magician, mentalist, and maker. His one-of-a-kind performances have been enjoyed by millions of people across the globe, including multiple appearances on national television. His creations have appeared in film festivals, on television, and stages in Sweden, Brunei, New York, at The Magic Castle in Hollywood, and at The Kennedy Center in Washington, DC. When not performing, Peter’s specific magical thinking and fabrication know-how have led him to design and consult for film projects, theatrical productions, and his fellow performers.
