A Magic Show for the Entire Family !
||| FROM LASLO MAGIC |||
After over a year of being closed for live performances and movies, the Sea View Theatre will welcome back audiences for the Magic of Matthew Laslo, July 1-4 with two shows daily.
Matthew Laslo is an award-winning magician and Orcas Island’s own young celebrity who has had much career success so far. He’s been featured on numerous television shows including the CW networks “PENN & TELLER: FOOL US,” and “MASTERS OF ILLUSIONS.” In 2019 he performed for China’s #1 hit television show, “THE AMAZING MAGICIANS,” where he wowed their 270 million viewers with his fresh and charismatic style.
Last April, Matthew was about to embark on a 35-city tour with the Portland-based production, “Shazam! The Magic Show,” when the pandemic hit and closed everything down. Now with the pandemic under control and restrictions lifting, theatres are allowed to operate at 50% capacity with safety protocols in place and Matthew can’t wait to get back out there.
“We will be opening up the theatre for live audiences with an abundance of caution,” says producer Donna Laslo. “We want people to feel safe and comfortable. We have been preparing for months now, cleaning and upgrading the HVAC systems to the highest filtration possible. We’ve also created a ticketing system that will automatically create social distancing once you have purchased your seats.”
Audiences of all ages have been blown away by Matthew’s show which is always high-energy entertainment with lots of laughs and audience participation. Joining him are his talented assistants, Maria Bullock and Kellen Comrie.
SHOW TIMES & COVID PROTOCOLS — TWO SHOWS DAILY: July 1-3 (5 pm & 8 pm) & July 4 (2 pm & 5 pm)
The early shows will be physically distanced and vaccinations not required. When selecting your seats, the system will automatically create 6 ft. of distance between you and other parties. Masks are to be worn at all times and the concessions will be closed.
The later shows are for vaccinated guests only. Proof of vaccination is required. Once you choose your seats on the ticketing chart, it will automatically create 3ft. distance between parties. Masks optional. Full concessions and bar will be open.
