Sensory-Friendly Magic Show

May 16 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm
A stage magician performs a levitation illusion during a live theatrical show. A bald man dressed in a black long-sleeve button-up shirt and gray trousers stands leaning over a wooden platform or table draped with a rich red cloth trimmed with gold fringe. Lying horizontally on the table is a blonde woman wearing black clothing and a decorative purple, gold, and white sequined or embroidered wrap or shawl covering her torso and legs. She appears to be floating or suspended, with her body rigid and elevated slightly above the table surface. The magician holds a large silver metal hoop — a classic prop used to demonstrate that no hidden supports are holding the assistant aloft — passing it around her levitated body with his right hand while his left hand gestures near her feet. The hoop has small blue light accents along its edge. The background features deep blue, dramatically lit fabric with a textured, crinkled appearance, creating a theatrical and mysterious atmosphere. The stage is darkly lit overall, with spotlight illumination focused on the performers.

This event is hosted by the Providence Performing Arts Center in collaboration with The Autism Project. Tickets are $6 and can be purchased here.
