What sets
McBride apart is his presentation. Drawing heavily from Japanese Kabuki
theater and smartly incorporating sound and lighting into his individual
pieces, McBride creates a world of mystery and fantasy that takes his
show to a level most magicians can't achieve.

McBride
has always been among the very best magicians who have earned Atlantic
City gaming hall paychecks. As "Magic at the Edge" clearly
illustrates, McBride's brilliance remains intact.
