This February, in celebration of Black History Month, Tommy Terrific’ s Wacky Magic presents a fun and engaging magic show inspired by the life of Satchel Paige and the legacy of Negro League Baseball.

Filled with baseball-themed magic tricks and storytelling, the show explores Satchel Paige’s extraordinary journey — from his all-star touring performances and record-setting career in the Negro Leagues to his historic induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame as the oldest rookie and oldest player in Major League Baseball.
