Confessions of a Mystic is coming to East Van!

Join us for a SLICE of Magic: The Full Length Premiere of Confessions of a Mystic, with an East Van Twist at SLICE Gallery.

The witch is in, and she’s hosting an open house. Exhausted by all the rumours, Mystic Cassia is ready to share the reality of being an East Van witch. Find out if she will be able to clear her name, discover the truths about fortune telling and potentially have your own fortune read in this audience interactive show.

Confessions of a Mystic: SLICE of Magic is a playful night of enchanting fun crafted around an audience interactive solo show. The show officially starts at 7:30pm, but arrive early for the full experience!

Doors open at 7pm: Pre-show enjoy pinball, photo booths along with all the fantastic art displays and store at SLICE Gallery.

The structured performance is approximately 90 minutes with a 10 minute intermission.

Stick around post-show for photo opportunities and quick tarot reads.
