Magic man
July 24
YouTube videos show people freaking out after self-described mentalist and magician Kourosh Taie seemingly reads their thoughts, guessing names of celebrities or friends they’ve imagined, or random words they’ve thought up. He amazes people with new twists on sleight-of-hand tricks, somehow knowing beforehand which card a person will pull from a deck or making a person’s initials magically appear on a coin they’re holding. During A Virtual Magic Hour with Kourosh Taie, presented by Gaithersburg’s Arts on the Green visual and performing arts program, the entertainer presents his signature style of magic and mind reading in an interactive virtual format. Recommended for ages 12 and older. Ticketholders will be sent a link to the online performance.
