Me - Believe in Magic is  a magic show performed by Jason Bishop. It was a really fun show to see! I liked that he did a lot of really cool magic tricks. He did some tricks I had seen before but they were not exactly the same. They were variations of the tricks you had seen before. Also, he did a lot of tricks I had never seen before.  He did a trick where he made a ghostlight disappear and then, it reappeared in a bag. He did some close up magic by projecting what he was doing on a big screen. He did a trick with a dog named Gizmo. He said the dog's name was dog #97. He made the dog disappear and then reappear. That was the best part of the magic show because dog number #97 was really cute. There was even a trick where he made $1,000,000 disappear. Jason Bishop has a really good personalilty. He is very entertaining. He has a good sense of humor and he jokes around a lot. He took volunteers from the audience for some of his tricks. One litte girl got a shirt for helping him with a trick. A family that helped with another trick got a card. A boy who helped got a handkerchief. The girl who got the shirt was the luckiest. You should really go see Believe in Magic at the New Victory Theater. It's a great show.
Mom - Jason Bishop is charming magician who has a great rapport with his audiences. He makes old tricks you may have seen before like the ball trick and card tricks seem like new. He also has a few new tricks up his sleeve that you probably have never have seen before. Did you ever see a magician make it snow or a million dollars disappear? He even has a trick where the whole audience gets to participate. Have you ever seen a magician read the mind of an entire audience? These are just a few of the amazing illusions you'll see in this show. The act also includes an adorable dog that disappears and reappears and an assistant who has an uncanny knack for mysteriously changing clothes in the middle of an illusion. At almost two hours, this show is a bit longer than the New Victory Theater's typical show. However, the show is so entertaining that it will go by in a flash and you'll actually wish it was longer. Anyone who is old enough to understand the concept of magic will enjoy this truly entertaining show.

And that's our view. Tune in tomorrow for this week's Sunday Scoop.
