“The Amazing Great” to Appear at Stamford Historical Society Aug. 12

STAMFORD — On Wednesday, August 12, the Stamford Historical Society welcomes Brian Foley, AKA The Amazing Great, for a performance of his “Mojologue” or magic monologue, a show of magic and illusions for thinking people. 

Along with utilizing everyone’s name and creating a fantasy audience member using suggestions from the audience, Brian has some special memory, math, and magic effects that will pique your interest and hopefully inspire you to question your own mind. 

You can expect to be entertained, edified, and enlightened by “Multiple Mentalism,” and other mind-bending effects of Brian’s Mojologue. As you’ve probably realized by now, this is not a children’s magic show.

Brian’s been messing with minds for about 50 (!) years now, from coast to coast, from northern Scandinavia to north Africa and from the furthest part of western Europe to East Germany (before it disappeared— coincidence?) and many other parts besides. He’s glad to be booked again in New York State so he can stay here for a while. 

Join us at the train station at the intersection of Railroad Avenue and South Street in Stamford on Wednesday, August 12, at 7 p.m. All are welcome at this free program; donations appreciated.
