Fun, casual evening with my teenage daughter. We love the venue. The way Christian weaved his stories in with his magic was really entertaining. Great audience interaction. Singer was also good and talented! Overall a really great night! For about the same cost as a movie theater and refreshments, we got to see a fantastic show and support our local live theater and talented artists!
