Magic Show: Peter Boie
9:00–10:00 p.m.
Misciagna Family Center for Performing Arts
Peter Boie first became fascinated with magic at the age of eleven when he stumbled across a magic book at his local library. He now travels around the country performing his award-winning magic that will defy your reality. Boie's show is about two things: astonishing magic and having a good time. And he doesn't skimp on either! You might recognize him by his trademark orange sneakers or from the group of people around him freaking out at his magic and having a good time. Magic isn’t real ... but Boie will make you believe it is for the length of his show. Combining original mind-blowing magic and a heavy dose of humor is his secret to success and why it’s made him one of the top-booked college acts around the country. Boie has performed for such celebrities as legendary musician Neil Young, quarterback Tom Brady, and the Patriots football team and ownership.
