An Afternoon of Magic with Joe Labero

We were invited to Joe Labero A Night Of Magic At Raffles last Sunday. My girl was super excited when I told her that we were going to see a magic show. It was a first time for her.

Excited to watch her first magic show at the theatres

Held at the Jubilee Hall theatre at Raffles Hotel, the show promises to thrill audiences with fire-eating, trap-escaping and a whole lot of illusions. Due to the use of dark lighting and spooky music, it's definitely not for kids under 5 years old.

When the show began, my girl was all quiet and mesmerised. "How did the magician do that mummy?" she asked on numerous occasions.

"I'm not sure, I think it must be magic!" I replied.

Unfortunately for me, I do know how some of the illusions were executed, no thanks to the numerous episodes of "Breaking the Magician's Code: Magic's Biggest Secret Finally Revealed" that the hubby made me watch with him. Totally spoiled the first half of the show for me! I was like "aiyah, that's how he got out lah!" the whole time!

It also didn't help that the guy in front of me was a head taller than the rest and loved moving his head left and right for no good reason (I had to move my head constantly in the opposite direction)! At one time I was so pissed that I nearly hit his head with my phone ("STOP MOVING!!!" I screamed in my head.) *ggrrr*

The show got more interesting towards the second half of the show. He performed a few acts that were new to us and made us sit up just a bit more. The girl was so excited that she kept raising her hand for Joe Labero to call on her to help him. She was actually angry that he called her daddy "Mr Lee" to help instead. The look on her face was priceless :D

All in all, it's a great show if you have not watched shows where they revealed magic's secrets (if you have then unfortunately that has killed all the magic in everything *bummer*). Definitely good for kids!
