Students at Rhame Avenue Elementary School were treated to an afternoon of magic and surprises when magician Eric Wilzig visited for a special assembly sponsored by the Rhame PTA.
The performance, held in the school gymnasium, featured a variety of illusions, including levitation acts and disappearing tricks, along with humor and audience participation.
Several students and teachers joined Wilzig and his assistant on stage to help with the tricks, drawing cheers and laughter from their classmates.
Wilzig, who began practicing magic at age 5, has appeared on "America's Got Talent" and "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon." He has also performed at Madison Square Garden and Caesars Palace in Las Vegas and trained under magicians David Copperfield and Criss Angel.
The assembly gave students a chance to experience live magic up close while enjoying an afternoon outside their usual classroom routines.
