Yesterday I went to a great magic show at Heartford theatre. My favourite
illusion was the first trick. For this trick there were eight people on the
stage and they were all wearing white clothes. The magician put a screen in
front of them and then quickly revomed it. When here moved the screen the
people weren't there but here were eight white birds. This was only one of many
great illusions so I really recommend this show

Yesterday I went to a great magic show at Heartford theatre. My favourite
illusion was the first trick. For this trick there were eight people on the
stage and they were all wearing white clothes. The magician put a screen in
front of them and then quickly revomed it. When he removed the screen the
people weren't there but here were eight white birds. This was only one of many
great illusions so I really recommend this show.

The magician put a screen in front of them and then quickly removed it. When here moved the screen the people weren’t there but here were eight white birds.
