When most people think of magic shows they probably think
of goofy a looking birthday party magician dressed in a cheap
suit doing card tricks, waving around a plastic black and white
wand and pulling rabbits out of hats. But not all magicians are
cheesy, and not all magic shows are just for kids. Brooklyn-
born magician and illusionist David Blaine has been taking
magic to the next level for about 20 years through television
specials and public spectacles. Known mostly for his extreme
endurance stunts, Blaine has held his breath under water
for almost nine minutes, been buried alive and caught a .22
caliber bullet in a small metal cup in his mouth (check all of
those out on his website, davidblaine.com). Blaine is going
on his first-ever national tour, making a stop in Eugene on
Tuesday, June 6. According to his website, the tour itself is an
experiment and “will evolve as it moves across the country as
Blaine continues to push the limits and attempt new feats for
the first time live in front of his audiences. No two shows will
be exactly the same.”
Blaine will be bringing his one-man show to Eugene 8 pm
on Tuesday, June 6, at the Hult Center. Tickets range from
$33.95-$90.70. – Meerah Powell
