On Thursday, May 28 at 8 p.m., magician and author Allan Zola Kronzek will present an evening of history and mystery at Temple Adas Israel with “Magical Jews: The Life & Times of Great Jewish Magicians.”
The performance by a master of the magical trade will celebrate the lives of iconic performers, some famous like Harry Houdini, others not so famous, but just as fascinating.
