Rave Reviews For Washington Magic on Yelp
2019 was a great year for Washington Magic! We have made out mark on the DC night life and here’s what people are saying on Yelp about our shows:
“Elegant evening of magic and wine!
The Arts Club of Washington is a hidden gem containing another hidden gem, the roughly-monthly Washington Magic show. Run by high/powered political consultant David Morey and retired DC restauranteur Savino Racine, the entire evening is an enchanting experience.
You’ll want to arrive early for drinks: the Club provides an excellent rotation of wines and cocktails. Drink in hand, enjoy the close-up magic for the 30 minutes before the show. Bring your drink with you into the salon, where the stage and sound system make every seat a good one.
Be prepared for visually stunning magic and mysterious mind-reading, served with lots of audience interaction and humor. The intimate Arts Club space is ideal for this type of entertainment; it feels like stepping back into a more elegant and refined time.
Our audience was a mix of A-list Washington power couples and young people, who were engaged in the show and enthusiastic afterwards. With many good restaurants nearby, Washington Magic makes a great date night, special occasion evening, or attraction for out-of-town guests. With fewer than 100 seats, this may soon become the toughest ticket to get in DC.
There are several inexpensive parking garages nearby, and the Arts Club is only two blocks from the Farragut West Metro (Red Line).”

TEENAGERS LEARN THAT DECORUM BEGINS AT DINNER
By Karlyn Barker
December 17, 1991
For their dinner outing last night, the teenage boys from Sousa Junior High School in Southeast Washington got a crash course in restaurant etiquette from their assistant principal.
Do not go in while chewing gum, Dorothy Patton warned them during a special training session last week. Do not scream across the room at a friend. Do not start eating until everyone else has been served at your table. Don’t cut up all of your food at once.
And remember, she advised somberly: “We do not use our napkin to blow our nose.”

Dear Friends:
Our first Museletter of the new year is from Kat Rettke. If you’ve attended Magic & Meaning, you’ve certainly met Kat. If you’ve attended one of our other events, you’ve received our 30-day-out and 10-day-out letters from her, or communicated with her about your registrations. While not a regular performer of magic herself, Kat has been an avid fan and student of magic for many years. She has become an invaluable and much-loved member of our team at the McBride Magic & Mystery School. I know you’ll enjoy her thoughts below.
