Hello my magical piglets,
Once again, it is I, The Great Porciini, The Magic Flying Pig (TMFP), here to talk about my favorite thing, besides a good bowl of slop. Yes, it is, of course, Indy Magic Monthly. This time it's the first anniversary of the show, to be celebrated at our next exhibition on April 7.
April 1 was the opening of IMM at Theatre On The Square. We were originally another name, but 3 weeks before opening a cease and desist letter made us change the name. Now, after 11 shows, plus 4 road trips to Nashville, IN, we're known as Indy's Original Magic and Variety Showcase. Nearly 20 performers have been part of the show and all have brought their best to the table. Amazing magic, juggling, and even an owl or 2 have made the Indy Magic shows special.
I have been proud to be on Taylor Martin's logo. Being a TMFP makes it hard to choose where to land my delicate hooves, but I am happy to be the mascot of IMM. And Guido, the magician in the hat, has expressed his pleasure, too. His hair is almost gone, but that's why he has the magic of hair-weaves.
The second year hopes to allow us to expand to more variety and music acts. We are hoping that IMM becomes a brand that all can trust to provide the finest in legerdemain. Come along with me and I shall fly you to the happiest of days ahead.
Yours,
The Great Porciini, TMFP
