Greg Frewin’s grand illusions

From the Niagara Falls Review:

After 90 minutes of delays, Greg Frewin is finally ready to make stuff disappear.

His doves are in place. The lights are finally working. The TV cameras flip on. He takes his place at centre stage, where he’ll film the day’s first illusion in front of a crew that has already had a long day.

“Can we get some smoke?,” he asks one of the backstage staff.

Thirty seconds pass. “Smoke?,” he repeats.

“Not working,” a voice answers behind the curtain.

Frewin has kept it together all morning, but this time he’s furious. He stomps off stage and returns a minute later, explaining why the smoke machine won’t work because someone piled a bunch of material on it.

“I don’t know why people can’t not put stuff on top of it,” he mutters. “A $10,000 machine …”

You should read the rest of the article… it’s very good. I’m looking forward to the other two parts.

Comedians rally for new dialysis centre

From Niagara This Week:

Komedy for Kidneys, a fundraising event to benefit the construction of a kidney dialysis centre in Niagara Falls, returns for a second year to the Greg Frewin Theatre.

The charity event was recently renamed in memory of comedian Rodney Pentland, who passed away earlier this year due to complications related to kidney disease.
