Kreskin Demonstrates Mystifying Stage Control at Mt. St. Mary’s
A magic mind reader wowed a 40 person crowd with a hypnotic onstage routine. Spectators shivered in cold and then sweltering heat as he guided a priest to remove his coat and a girl to undress. He directed a chorus performing Happy Birthday to Kreskin and had participants forget names and counting before restoring them. He noted kinship with Mt. St. Mary’s College after graduating from Seton Hall and received a standing ovation as he departed.
