Early in the 18th Century, magic (or conjuring as it was then called) emerged as a genuine art form and entertainment.

Professors of natural philosophy and conjuring would rent taverns, legitimate theaters or lecture halls for the exhibition and displays of legerdemain, necromancy, or what would today be called “illusion” and “magic tricks.” The citizens of Europe would pay top dollar to see the latest discoveries in the science of “natural philosophy.” Today, Professor DR Schreiber presents an historic look at the beginnings of modern magic in his performances and exhibitions. Join Professor DR Schreiber as he leads you on a stroll through the past centuries of conjuring entertainment. His presentations entertain while educating the audience about historical events, literary and cultural figures, and the science and art of conjuring.
