Sunday, May 3, 1 pm, Temple Israel
A magical afternoon is planned for Temple Israel’s Annual Gala, an event that includes a deluxe luncheon and entertainment from Philadelphia magician Mike Miller.
Miller, a past president of the Society of American Magicians, says the show will delight all ages, from five to 105, and will feature significant audience participation. He has performed at Atlantic City casinos, including Caesar’s, Showboat, and Tropicana, and before sports organizations such as the Philadelphia Eagles and 76ers.
To see Miller in action, go to www.mikemillersmagic.com.
Linda and Jonathan Longman, members of Temple Israel, attended Miller’s show at Massanutten Resort in Virginia last summer.
“He was an excellent magician!” the Longmans say. “So wonderfully unusual were some of his tricks that we could not begin to conjure a way in which he could do many of these feats of magic. It was a truly memorable show that kept us entertained and feeling a sense of wonderment well after it was over.”
Norman Soroko, Temple Israel’s president, says, “The past five spring galas under my watch have been most successful. I’m confident that this year’s event will be an even bigger hit.”
