With the wave of a hand, and an incantation spoken - poof! Out of thin air appears a ball, which is multiplied and reduced in size. Another wave of the hand, another magic word spoken-again poof! The ball returns to the air. This is one of several time-honored routines Dayton Edmonds practices. Some call it magic; he says it's illusion. Specializing in close-up magic, Dayton is available for schools, libraries, camps, fairs, festivals, events and other community gatherings.
