Friends Performing Arts: Magic Things with Ben Seidman

Magic is coming back to Greenwich Library on Thursday, December 11 when master of deception Ben Seidman joins us for a night of mentalism and sleight of hand illusions. This show is appropriate for ages 13+.

Seidman stars in the Vanity Fair, VF Review on pickpocketing and sleight of hand. He starred in the Netflix Original Brainchild produced by Pharrell. Ben appeared twice on Penn & Teller: Fool Us (CW), Vanderpump Rules (Bravo), starred in Magic Outlaws (Travel Channel), and consulted on three seasons of Mindfreak on A&E, designing illusions for Criss Angel. Ben taught magic to Johnny Knoxville and consulted on multiple feature films in the Jackass franchise. Internationally, he wrote and directed magic for SVT, the biggest TV channel in Sweden.

Ben was the highest-rated headlining performer for Princess Cruises and won the title Entertainer of the Year. He’s the only person in history to be named the Resident Magician at Mandalay Bay, Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. Now based in Los Angeles, Ben creates amazement at private parties, including performances for Christina Aguilera, Aubrey Plaza, and Zedd. He has dazzled CEOs, Senators, and the late-great Robin Williams.

Last year's evening with Mentalist Colin Cloud turned out to be one of the highlights of our programming year. Be sure not to miss this one night only performance you'll have to see to believe. This show is appropriate for ages 13+.
