Each of the four days ends with a world class magic and variety show held in the air-conditioned Colon High School Auditorium.

Thur Aug 5 features an international 2 time gold medal winner, George Saterial. Mark Cannon will attempt a death defying escape. Chained in an open box below 24 blades of steel, he will attempt to escape before the rope burns through crashing into him. This is only one of a few escapes he will attempt. Mark Merchant, a cruise ship performer, will M.C. this show.
