The Freed Center to host The Spencers' Theatre of Illusion - two shows Jan. 29

Posted by Fred Steiner on January 25, 2012 - 6:29am

Ohio Northern University's Freed Center for the Performing Arts presents The Spencers' "Theatre of Illusion" at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on Sunday, Jan. 29.

Rather than centering their performances on baffling with the audience with impossible tricks, Kevin and Cindy Spencer focus on the drama, spectacle, interaction, danger and personality of their show, which separates them from most magicians. The husband-wife duo performs traditional magic stunts, but they do so with their own personal flair, sharing the magical experience through audience participation.
