587: Eileen McFalls - Cellini: No Ordinary Magic


Listen Later

Eileen McFalls spent much of the 1980’s with legendary street magician, Jim Cellini, during his formative and growth years on the street. All of this “underbelly” of an otherwise unseen world is brought into focus in the memoirs of his traveling companion, Eileen McFalls in, “No Ordinary Magic - Unexpected Travels with the Great Cellini.” Few books give such details recounting the sights, sounds, smells and ambiance of an era and,, indeed, of every moment on the road. You can feel the heat, smell the sweat, hear the music and feel the pressure of the street and the audience as Eileen reveals intimate details from her memoir.

The one and only Jim Cellini plays Jackson Square in New Orleans, 1985.

In this episode, we hit the streets as we are transported to a different time and different places in this detailed travelogue that you will not hear anywhere else. Eileen shares some stories from her book plus additional details and memories that didn’t make it inn the book.
