Singer-songwriter Neyla Pekarek—formerly of The Lumineers—will celebrate the new EP The Queen of Magic, based on her new musical, with a special “Vaudevillian Extravaganza,” featuring curiosities and amusements from special guests, on Thursday, August 13 at 7 PM at The Green Room 42. The show will also feature magic from Linda Hung and the harmonies of the barbershop quartet, Smoke Ring.
The Queen of Magic is the untold story of Adelaide Hermann, world-famous magician, artistic visionary and fierce businesswoman. A contemporary of magical greats such as Harry Houdini, Adelaide not only excelled in her field, she reshaped it entirely, taking the old 19th century magic show standard and creating the theatrical spectacle we know and love today. Adelaide’s legacy lives on for the next generation of magic lovers and makers in this heart-warming, humorous, and at times harrowing musical tale.
