FREE SHOW: The Magic of Lance Gifford is a fast paced, high energy magic show complete with doves, rabbits, a chow, toy and standard poodles, Macaw Parrots and Burmese pythons snakes. The show had the privilege of opening for Lori Morgan, Randy Travis, Charlie Daniels and Josh Gracin during its 2006 national tour. Lance Gifford started his magical career in Billerica, Massachusetts, at the age of twelve. His parents took him to a magic shop for his twelfth birthday and that sparked his love for the art of conjuring. From that day on, every penny Gifford made was spent on buying magic illusions to produce his own show. For the next few years the young Gifford entertained audiences throughout New England. When he was sixteen years old Gifford began performing on a traveling circus. He later performed with the New England based Fiesta Shows Carnival. At age 18, Gifford moved to Tampa, Florida the “showmen's capital of the world.” From there he toured extensively throughout the United States, Canada and the Bahamas. He is pleased with this opportunity to return to New England where his magical career all began. He is also happy to be able to help some local charitable organizations raise funds for their projects. In commenting on this year’s New England tour, Gifford said. “My career really took off when I joined Fiesta Shows twenty years ago. I consider it a privilege to be touring with them once again. I travel extensively each year and this is the finest carnival operation I know of. I am delighted to be part of the family fun that we create week after week.” The Spring Carnival & Magic Show at South Shore Plaza in Braintree, MA. opens weekdays at 5:30 PM and Saturdays & Sundays at 12:00 Noon.
