Mesmerizing Magician Dennis Watkins Set for Theatre at the Center This Weekend

Magician Dennis Watkins will bring his hilarious brand of magic and mentalism to Theatre at the Center in Munster this weekend, April 2 and 3, for a total of three performances.

A third-generation magician and entertainer, Watkins has astonished audiences across the country for decades. He performs many of magic's true classics that have been handed down in his family for generations. From card tricks to mind reading, audiences will be mystified by Watkin's masterful skills. He also incorporates just the right blend of comedy to keep audiences laughing along in wonderment.

His show features some of the art's quintessential mysteries as they were taught to him by his grandfather. Though they are time-tested classics, Watkins includes his own twists so everyone experiences the same wonders that audiences have reveled in for generations, while watching a show that is fresh, contemporary and absolutely mind-boggling.

In addition to being a master of sleight of hand, Watkins is a mind-reader. He peers into his audience's minds to see thoughts, pictures and ideas. He identifies objects while blindfolded, shatters glass with his mind and can even tell surprised audiences the details and names of specific information such as a childhood crush.

The Dennis Watkins magic show takes place on the main stage of Theatre at the Center at 3 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 2 and 2:30 p.m. on Sunday April 3. This is a great offering for families as he is engaging across the age spectrum. The show runs approximately 90 minutes with no intermission.
