[ARCHIVED] Canton Goodfellows Bring “A Brit of Magic” To Canton’s Village Theater For a Good Cause

Enjoy an extravaganza of comedy and magic as the Canton Goodfellows bring magician and comedian Keith Fields' "A Brit of Magic” to The Village Theater at Cherry Hill in Canton, MI.  This popular entertainer will perform on the main stage starting at 8 p.m. on Saturday, November 4, 2017.  Tickets are on sale now and can be purchased online at www.villagetheatercanton.com, in person at The Village Theater’s Box Office Monday – Friday from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. or by phone by calling 734/394-5484.


Keith Fields is truly an international performer. Born in the Caribbean, brought up in England, and now living in the USA, Fields is a diverse performer with the ability to play to any audience. One minute he is a stand-up comedian, the next a hilarious prop comic; then he will smack you in the face by producing a goldfish bowl from nowhere! He is definitely not your average comedian or your average magician!  A pre-show reception will begin at 6:30 p.m., where audience members can participate in a 50/50 raffle, silent auction, and enjoy light food and drinks. The main stage performance of “A Brit of Magic” is scheduled to begin at 8:00 p.m.


Canton Goodfellows is a non-profit organization in Canton, MI that brings Christmas to children in need each holiday season through their “No Child Without a Christmas” campaign.  Through this initiative and with the help of local donors, volunteers, and businesses, the Canton Goodfellows are able to gift families with toys and clothing for their children, so that every child in the community may experience the magic of Christmas.


During the 2016 “No Child Without a Christmas” campaign, the Canton Goodfellows served 118 Canton families with 324 children to ensure that all area youth have the opportunity to experience the joys of the holiday season.  A mother of one of the served children replied to say thank you to the Canton Good fellows for, “making my kids' Christmas a wonderful experience. I cried tears of joy because of all of the beautiful gifts. My four-year-old’s first remark when he came down the stairs was ‘What the heck!’ I wish we had a video of the look of amazement that filled his face. All of my kids said that this was the best Christmas ever! Thank you to everyone who played a part in making this Christmas for my family.”


“A Brit of Magic,” featuring magician and comedian Keith Fields, will be held on Saturday, November 4, 2017, on the Main Stage at The Village Theater at Cherry Hill in Canton, MI; beginning with a pre-show reception at 6:30 p.m. and the featured performance at 8:00 p.m.
