"I've seen her delight and I’ve seen her amaze. When Carisa is performing as Lucy Darling, anything can happen" - Rob Zabrecky

"Lucy Darling is one of the most exciting, hilarious magicians to come along in the last ten years. And some of the smartest
things I’ve heard a magician say are in Carisa Hendrix’s lecture." - John Lovick

"Lucy Darling has figured out that rare technique of of being in the moment. Her magic is good, plus she is funny and cute. All of that makes her a force to be reckoned with." - Max Maven

ABOUT THE LECTURE
We'll be covering using the language of clothing to convey aspects of your character, the science of comedy and how to write better magic. She will also showcase a few new routines and some twists on a few classics. There will be very little crossover with Carisa's recent Penguin Live Act lecture.

TIME: 7:30 – 9:30 p.m.
PRICE: $15 for members, $30 for non-members
No need to RSVP... just show up!
