"Women and magic, without the
contraptions" is an article by Chuck Darrow in the Jun. 19 issue of The Record (a New
Jersey Newspaper). Darrow gave a very nice review to Joanie Spina and Becky Blaney for
their new Atlantic City show, "Women of Magic: Beyond Your Dreams." He closed by
saying, "What Spina and Blaney offer are the most important elements of all: talent,
professionalism, and a sense of fun. And it makes their program worth seeing. He continued
with a terrific intro to Harry Mauer who is headlining at the Showboat's "Basin
Street Follies."(6/19)
