SHOWS

Street Show

There's nothing better than strolling the Old Market on a warm summer night and happening upon a street show. Spontaneous crowd interactions mixed with off the cuff magic often using a deck of cards and borrowed objects from the crowd, the Old Market Magician street show is where the sidewalk suddenly becomes the stage. Shows with The RiverFront will be posted while all other locations & times are random.

The M&M Show

Come see why people are calling Ryan the Willy Wonka of magic! And then grab some candy while you're at it. These shows often take place on a Sunday afternoon around 2:30pm. The performances run approximately 30 - 40 minutes and are chock full of authentic routines. Expect the unexpected as Ryan tends to test out original material for the first time causing the vibe to feel like an indoor street show. Magical Matinees are always free for everyone.

Tricks of the Trade

LOCATIONS

Street Show at The RiverFront

The show will take place at the 11th Street Promenade in Gene Leahy Mall. The RiverFront manages Omaha's Gene Leahy Mall, Heartland of America Park, and the Lewis & Clark Landing. These outdoor spaces have created a positive and diverse culture where people come together from all walks of life. The areas are geared for the entire family with water features, playgrounds, and green spaces, while serving as the link between the historic Old Market and north downtown Omaha.

Hollywood Candy Theater Show at 12th and Jackson in the Old Market

M&M stands for Magic Matinee. Hollywood Candy is one of the most unique stores you will ever visit. Witness aisles filled with candy, an old school diner, arcade, pinball machines, record store, and an antique shop. There are many oddities inside. Within the heart of the store, you will discover a small and very quaint theater, which is where the Hollywood Candy Magical Matinee takes place. Just be sure to plan out enough time to walk the rest of the store either before or afterwards so you get the full Hollywood Candy experience.

Mahoney State Park at the Kountze Memorial Theatre

Kountze Memorial Theater is located inside Eugene T. Mahoney State Park. Along with magic shows, the park also has ice-skating, sledding, a rock climbing wall, and an indoor playground. Cabins and hotel rooms at the lodge are also available for those seeking an extended stay. For those without a park permit, daily entrance to the park is $7 (Nebraska vehicle) and $14 (non-Nebraska registered vehicle).
