We performed 4 hours of mingling magic at Hoosier Park. This was our first time performing at a live race track.

The guests loved it!

Not only did they enjoy live horse racing, they were having a blast watching the close-up magic and mind reading. Although people have seen some magic on TV, most have not seen any close-up magic; it is extremely powerful!

Magic definitely leaves a lasting impression and provides a topic of conversation for days to follow. That’s why magic is perfect for corporate meetings, conferences, and events.

Christian and I had a wonderful time in Batesville Indiana! What a fantastic group of people! They were a super audience: nice, kind, and fun. We had 2 corporate shows and we had such a good time that Christian didn’t want the fun to end. He performed close-up magic after our stage show not only for our corporate clients, but for others enjoying a meal/drinks in the bar area.

We just finished a corporate event at the Mavris Arts and Event Center just a few blocks from downtown Indianapolis.

As you can see, it is beautiful with all wood floors, brick, and wood columns; it is a great atmosphere. It is a joy to walk into a building and be inspired by what you see. John Mavris is very passionate about his center and his life and it shows!

You can find out more about the Mavris Arts and Event Center by going to www.mavrisculturalcenter.net.

We were cleaning up after the show and there were some people still enjoying the evening, so Christian entertained them with some card tricks. They loved it! There is nothing more powerful than seeing magic happen right in front of your eyes. Brad, who you see in the picture, was blown away and his co-workers may have to watch him so that his brain doesn’t explode from analyzing too much!

We are performing in Indiana, Iowa, and Illinois - the three I’s. We started the week out by performing “Magic at the Museum” - the Indianapolis Children’s Museum - for a corporate event/trade show. What a beautiful location. Take a look at this picture.

On the upper floor were the trade show booths where everyone could look down onto the main floor and watch all of the action. We were located on the main floor on a stage next to our clients and the mingling/dining area. We were the MC’s and entertainment for the event. It worked out fantastic.

Then we headed off to Iowa and Illinois to mesmerize the college students with our Mind Tripping show. Because we have been to many of these schools before, some students requested that Christian perform the things they remembered from last year specifically for their friends who missed it!

We just finished a bunch of shows at the American Cabaret Theater in Indianapolis. What a whirlwind. We flew in from Florida where we are currently on tour performing at colleges and had a show that same night and the next night and the next. Although we are exhausted, it was a great experience for two reasons: we love performing on a beautiful, historic stage and it was a public performance. We rarely get the opportunity to perform for the public as most of our performances are for private corporate events or colleges. Theater crowds are fantastic because they want to be entertained!

We love bringing audience members on stage. You never know how they will act once under the bright lights, but when you get a lively one, the audience loves it!

Here is a picture of our piece “Date with Destiny”. It was a great hit and got rave reviews.

We love to get feedback about our shows and here is one of the comments about Married 2 Magic:

“I left this show scratching my head — in a good way. Christian and Katalina, a husband and wife duo, did a marvelous job of wowing their audience with many a magic trick up their sleeves — or hidden in a box, or crumpled up in some paper, or, sometimes, seemingly out of nowhere. The ACT is a great venue for a show like this, with its table seating, making things more personal. There were many instances when Christian or Katalina came down to pick out volunteers to interact in the show and that added some neat variety. I was picked, which was great fun. C & K have a lively sense of humor — at times corny and cheesy, yes, but they kept us laughing. “ Chantal Incandela

Now we are back in Florida continuing our college entertainment with Mind Tripping.

We just returned from 4 days in Des Moines, Iowa! We were very excited to be able to perform Married 2 Magic and meet some superb people. Des Moines is a wonderful city - everyone is so nice. It has a beautiful downtown area that is being revitalized.

We were featured on Channel 13 News “Today in Iowa” to help promote the show. Dan Winters, the anchor, was great. He was stunned at the magic!

We debuted “Date with Destiny”! The reception was fantastic. We look forward to showing it to all of you!

Christian is always the performer - he loves to entertain. After the show, we were enjoying our Snakebites at a British pub, when we ran into some guests who had been to our show. Christian went over and showed them some close-up magic to make their evening just a bit more magical.

We are off to Minneapolis next week. Stay tuned!

We are sad to say that our Florida tour is over! We had an exceptional, thoroughly rewarding time. And we are not saying this just because we enjoyed 80 degree weather and avoided the 2 foot high snow at our home in Indianapolis! It was really because the people who attended our shows were so wonderful. Christian was in high form bantering back and forth with audience members. At one show, we had a 96 year old woman come up on stage and she was amazing. Sharp as a tack, quick witted, and just full of life. What an inspiration!Thank-you to all of the resorts and we hope to see you again very soon!

We were also very thrilled to meet up with an old friend, Janna.

Janna, Jordan, Taylor, and Katalina

The last time we saw her and her husband Tony was in Germany. Tony is currently a Major in the Transportation Corps of the US Army and is deployed to Iraq. Janna and her two adorable girls were visiting her parents in Florida. She is currently at Fort Drum, NY and she was very happy to leave the blizzard that was going on in her neck of the woods. We had a great time catching up and we hope to see her, the girls and Tony when he returns from Iraq.

We are very excited to be on tour through Florida. If you read our last post, you know we went from Vermont over to New York and the Adirondacks. Our last college show was in Malone, NY (only 12 miles from Canada) and we drove through the beginning of the blizzard, but escaped the 6 foot snow by hours. It was a long drive, but knowing that we were headed towards warm sunshine made the journey seem shorter. We arrived in Florida at 2 am and had a show at 1 pm the same day. That is the life of entertainers.

It was so nice to smell the warm air of Florida! A few days ago we could smell the orange blossoms and they are so fragrant. If you have never smelled an orange blossom it is one of the most extraordinary smells in the world. But more than anything, we enjoy the wonderful audiences in Florida. They are always as warm as the sunshine. The above picture is from the Stonecrest Resort. People at all of the resorts are so nice and helpful and a great audience. As soon as we mention that we are from Indianapolis, fellow Hoosiers burst into spontaneous applause. And after the show, when Katalina mentions that she grew up in Michigan, fellow Michiganders throw up their hand to show what part of Michigan they were from (only Michiganders understand this!). We are having an incredible time and will keep you posted on more of our Florida adventures.
