Magic on Broad Street

The Newport fire police

GNA CAMPUS- On Saturday, November 12 the Nanticoke and Newport fire police put on a magic show at the American Legion.  This event benefited both the Nanticoke and Newport fire police.

The GNA Insider was able to interview the magicians who performed in this show.

S. Patrick performed at the magic show.  S. Patrick has been performing magic since he was sixteen years old and has been doing it for twenty-two years. S. Patrick moved to New Jersey when he was younger and while sitting in his new school’s library, he came across a few books for magicians, and he really took a liking to them.

S. Patrick said his favorite thing about performing magic is seeing the look of awe and impacting the lives of kids.  S. Patrick’s advice for people who wants to start practicing magic with no experience would be, “Don’t go on the internet. Find a magic shop and find a good group of magicians to learn from. Find a magic chat group, be creative, and study.”

Jarred Kraft who is a Magician and Marine Corps Veteran has been doing magic since age ten. Jarred told The GNA Insider he liked the feeling he got when he performed. Jarred’s favorite thing about performing magic is giving people the feeling of wonder and awe. Jarred’s advice for people that wants to start practicing magic with no experience would be “Get involved with the magician’s society, books, Youtube, and meet other magicians.”

Damian The Magician has been practicing magic since he was five. When Damian was young, instead of watching cartoons, he was more fascinated by magic shows. Damian’s favorite part about performing is seeing the experience the audience has with his shows. Damian’s advice for people who want to start practicing magic with no experience would be “Find a good magician you trust and study from them.”

Fred Kraft has been doing magic for fourteen years. Fred started doing magic when his son wanted to learn so he decided to go with him. Fred’s favorite thing about performing is seeing people’s faces when they see the crazy stuff he does. Fred’s advice for people who want to start practicing magic with no experience would be “Find a local magician that will take you in and be serious.” Apart from being a Magician, Fred is the Nanticoke fire police captain.

Mellan’s Magic who also performed at the magic show was there. Unfortunately, The GNA Insider did not get to interview him but would like to thank him for his performance.
