He also provides a sneak peek into his upcoming shows across North America and highlights a special event happening at the end of April. Why Do Public Shows? 1. Promo Material: Public shows are an excellent opportunity to get high-quality promotional material. By hiring a photographer or videographer, you can capture footage of your performance that can be used to market yourself and book more gigs in the future.  2. Friends and Family: Public shows provide a chance for your friends and family to see you perform. They are your biggest supporters, and this is a great way for them to experience your magic without the high cost of private or corporate events.  3. Client Engagement: Offering free tickets to past and potential clients is a fantastic way to maintain relationships and generate new business. It gives you a reason to reach out and offer something valuable, which can lead to future bookings. &amp;nbsp; Upcoming Shows &amp;nbsp; Jonah shares his tour dates and locations for the next two months: - March 6th: Boston, performing at the Boston Magic Lab. - March 7th-9th: Connecticut, performing and lecturing at Mcon. - March 18th-20th: Austin, Texas, performing a show with Michael Rogerson. - March 25th-28th: Montreal, performing a show with John Elli. - April 8th-11th: St. Louis, performing a show with Josh Weidener. - April 28th-May 2nd: L Summit in Mexico, a special event for Mastermind members. &amp;nbsp; Mentions Boston Magic Lab Michael Rogerson John Elli Josh Weidener Toronto Magic Company   ","author_name":"Discourse in Magic","author_url":"http:\/\/discourseinmagic.com\/home\/","html":"<iframe title=\"Libsyn Player\" style=\"border: none\" src=\"\/\/html5-player.libsyn.com\/embed\/episode\/id\/35570295\/height\/90\/theme\/custom\/thumbnail\/yes\/direction\/forward\/render-playlist\/no\/custom-color\/88AA3C\/\" height=\"90\" width=\"600\" scrolling=\"no\"  allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozallowfullscreen oallowfullscreen msallowfullscreen><\/iframe>","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/assets.libsyn.com\/secure\/content\/185421640"}
