Arnie the Carnie's House of Fun: Pure Fun!
Brought to you by Wide Eyed Productions
Arnie the Carnie's House of Fun is just that- pure fun. Brian Anderson, the writer and Arnie the Carnie himself, is a natural performer (20 years of experience probably helps too) and puts on a show that includes magic, physical feats, and tips to avoid being scammed at the carnival.
Arnie is aided perfectly by Pianist, and apparent Mathematician, Matt Grinke who's accompaniment is essential to the performance.
At the show I attended there were some unexpected audience helpers- a German man and a fellow talented magician named Travis. The German man was helping with a trick that required a certain level of English comprehension but Anderson spun it off in a way that made it all the more hilarious. And when you accidentally invite another magician to the stage to demonstrate a common Carnie slight of hand trick, you can only hope that the magician will be a good sport- he was. All in all, this show is very well done; you are guaranteed laughs and wonder.
