PUNXSUTAWNEY â One of the many traditions of the summertime Festival in the Park is a strolling magician performing and also putting on a stage show.
This yearâs magician is Richard Benninghoff, who was born and raised in State College and operates out of there.
âI make my full-time living from magic, and itâs many times eight days a week,â Benninghoff said, adding that he travels back and forth from the west coast, Las Vegas and Los Angeles.
Benninghoff said on Friday heâll be walking around at noon and then doing a show at 4 p.m., and on Saturday heâll be walking around at 1 and 4 p.m. to wrap up the Festival in the Park.
