Fog City Magic Fest Returns To EXIT Theatre This January
Magic returns to EXIT Theatre with the Fourth Annual Fog City Magic Fest, co-curated by Master Magician Jay Alexander, and SFBG's 2018 Best Magician of the Bay, Christian Cagigal! Highlights include solo storyteller and magician David Hirata's historical excavation, The Jap Box, the welcome return of NYC's Peter Samelson, the magic of fan-favorite Jade, our first-ever Close-up Magic event hosted by Ryan Kane, a Saturday afternoon kid's show with YouTube's Grumpy Princess, and our signature closing night MAGIC SLAM!-the Iron Chef of magic competitions.
Dubbed by the San Francisco Chronicle as "not your grandparents' magic," in 2017, Fog City Magic Fest has been amazing audiences and upending expectations since 2016. Held at the magic-friendly EXIT Theatre, where festival co-founder Christian Cagigal has been an Artist-in-Residence since 2006, Fog City Magic Fest features a wide array of special guests stars from around the country, and their signature illusions.
