Do you believe in magic? Master . prestidigitator Randy Charach is a full-time devotee.
For the 11th year in a row, Charach will bring magical feats to the Pacific National. Exhibition, performing at the Kids' Street tent at 11 a.m., 2 p.m. and 5 p.m. each day. The PNE runs Aug. 21 - Sept. 6.
"Children are getting more sophisticated through the years," noted Charach, 30, in a Bulletin interview. "But 1 make sure that the tricks are so good, they don't know what's up my sleeve!" The entertainer also knows ; what it's like to be on the organizing end of the PNE. He has been the fair's coordinator of "family entertainment" acts for three years.
Charach fell under the V magic spell at age five, when his father took him to Las Vegas to see veteran magician "King Solombn" — actually his uncle Gable. The king taught him a magic trick," and I've never stopped performing^" he siaid.
At age 11, he honed his abilities by taking a magic course at the JCC.; The young performer pulled his first PNE gig out of a hat while at Churchill Secondary and has been asked back every year.
Charach's success with "MagiComedy" (short for "modern magic and creative comedy") led the multi-talented performer to enlarge his bag of tricks and become a manager:

That led to the creation of his Funtime Express agency, which has branched out to engage clbwns, jugglers, mimes, faccrpainters and balloon-twisters, too. Working from an office in his False Creek townhouse, Charach maintains a data base of more than 500 performers.
The entertainer has performed for Beth Israel and even does Bar-Mitzvah parties. His magical talents are now often found at sales meetings, where he blends sleight of hand with "magical" motivational speeches.
To Charach, magic appeals toeverybne's childlike side, "i don't think it would be sbmethihg I'd outgrow^' he ex plained. "ChiId re n energize me."
