“I Do Card Tricks and I’m Funny” is full of miracles and impossibilities that will amaze and entertain audiences of all ages! Just read a few of the reviews from last year’s festival:

“His first trick, I thought “how did he do that?” People asked him to repeat it. On the next tricks, I was thinking “There is no way he could do that”. Just impossible to do.” Christopher Lozinski- June 23, 2010

“Half of the fun was watching the other audience members’ stunned faces as one trick after another defied the laws of physics and reality…Armstrong worked the audience like a champ… astounding us.” Scott Haller- June 20, 2010
