As featured on NPR’s “All Things Considered”
“Crafts and industries of many stripes are trying to do more to foster diversity and inclusion. That includes the performing arts, where the practice of magic has an especially dismal track record when it comes to featuring women, people of color, people in the LGBTQ+ community and those who are differently abled.
A group of magicians, including one local to Boston, is trying to change that. Felice Ling is on the leadership team of the inaugural Inclusivity and Diversity in Magic Conference.
Ling is the founder and executive producer of the Boston Magic Lab. In an interview with GBH’s All Things Considered host Arun Rath, she described the Lab as a monthly showcase where new magicians can develop their skills — and more experienced ones can try out new tricks.”
