Get ready for a night of laughter and jaw-dropping illusions the whole family will love! Magician Bill Blagg brings his all-new show Family Magic to the Potter Center stage on Friday, Jan. 30, at 7 p.m.

Blagg is a favorite with audiences for blending mind-bending magic, comedy, and interactive fun that keeps fans of all ages on the edge of their seats. Born and raised in the small town of Zion, Ill., Bill has always had a natural affinity for magic. From an early age, he was drawn to the art of magic and embarked on a journey to become one of the most captivating touring magicians and illusionists of our time.

Bill’s life took a magical turn when he received three treasured books from his great grandfather. These books, known as the Harlan Tarbell course in magic, would forever change the course of his life. Filled with secrets, techniques, and the wonders of magic, these books became Bill’s gateway into a world of enchantment and mystery.

His new show is a testament to his unparalleled artistry and showmanship. During Family Magic, Bill not only amazes with his incredible magical feats, but he also pays homage to his great grandfather and the books that changed his life. His goal is to not only entertain and amaze but is also to inspire others, just as he was inspired.
