Uplifting performance
Illusionists Ted and Marion Outerbridge performing in Summerside Saturday
When Ted Outerbridge was seven years old, a man walked up to him as he was eating in a restaurant and pulled an egg out from behind his ear. “He blew my mind,” laughed Ted, a native of Montreal. That slight of hand had a profound impact on Ted’s life, eventually becoming his career as he invented himself as a magician and illusionist.
Joined by his co-star and wife Marion Outerbridge, Ted has been touring North America and Europe for nearly two decades. The couple’s latest show, “Outerbridge: Clockwork Mysteries” is coming to Summerside’s Harbourfront Theatre on Oct. 22. Tickets are available at the box office and at www. harbourfronttheatre.com. Attendants can expect to experience Greta the psychic goose, seeing Marion be cut in two as well as pulled through a small hole into a locked box, and various other flights of fancy.
