Liz Toonkel: MAGIC FOR ANIMALS

Saturday, February 24, 2024 // 7:30pm

The Lorraine Boccardo Theater

Magic for Animals is a one-woman magic show about agency, consent, and animal rights. Liz Toonkel uses sparkling, incisive humor to offer a refreshing antidote to the gendered and speciesist tradition of magic. She examines how we treat animals, and urges us to reconsider how we treat one another. By day, Liz is a production designer who’s shaped the look of such films as Marcel the Shell with Shoes On and Emily the Criminal, by night she’s a performance artist and magician.
