Nicholas R. Graham is a lifelong student of the sciences. He continuously studies and learns about the wonders of space, time earth and the mind and has hosted science parties where guests try hands-on experiments. Many of Graham’s experiments seem like magic, but they all have an explanation.

Graham plans to perform the popular “Elephant Toothpaste” chemical reaction. Graham said, “Come to Experi-Magic and we’ll teach you a kid-friendly version of elephant toothpaste that only requires some basic household chemicals and adult supervision. Then watch as we super-size the experiment during the show, using some super-secret chemicals that pack a bit more of a kick!”

Scot Grassette is Western Maine’s premier magician. He has studied and practiced magic for over 35 years. Many of the effects that Grassette will demonstrate will seem to have no explanation.

Grassette and Graham play off each other to present an amazing, amusing and incredible evening of spectacular magic and science experiments. They want you to decide, which do you enjoy the most: science or magic, but they’re guessing you’ll love the entire show.
