Poe's Magic Theatre: Friday the 13th Magic with Vincent La Padula, Plus FaeryCon Weekend

Vincent La Padula on Friday the 13th, The Magic Showcase on Saturday, ghost tours, and FaeryCon at the hotel.

This Weekend at Poe's

A fresh weekend of live entertainment is waiting inside the Lord Baltimore Hotel. Here is what is taking the stage, plus a look at the curious nights coming soon.

Friday the 13th at Poe's: Vincent La Padula

Some people stay home on Friday the 13th. We recommend the opposite.

Vincent La Padula brings impossible magic, quick wit, and a talent for drawing the whole room into the act. An award-winning magician and storyteller, Vincent knows the best surprises are the ones nobody saw coming, including him. Expect laughter, astonishment, and at least one moment you'll still be arguing about on the way home.

Fri, Nov 13 at 8 pm. One night only.

This weekend the Lord Baltimore Hotel fills up with faeries, elves, goblins, ogres and at least one live mermaid. FaeryCon, from the Baltimore Faerie Faire, runs Fri, Nov 13 to Sun, Nov 15.

By day (1 pm to 5 pm) it's a family fairy festival: a handmade artists market, workshops, panels, stage performances, live music and roaming characters. The nights are for grown-ups (18 and over), with the BridgerTroll Ball on Friday and the Faery Scary Ball on Saturday.

Poe's Magic Theatre is open all FaeryCon weekend, a few floors from the festivities. See Vincent La Padula on Friday or The Magic Showcase on Saturday, both at 8 pm, and end either night with a ghost tour at 10 pm. Faerie wings are welcome in the audience.

Fri: Vincent La Padula

Sat: The Magic Showcase

Weekend Weather

Friday looks mostly cloudy with a high near 51 and a 40 percent chance of rain, mainly before 1 pm. Friday night dips to around 36. Saturday is partly sunny, again near 51, with a low around 37 overnight. Coat weather, in other words, and a fine excuse to spend the evening indoors with us.

Downtown This Weekend

Sat, Nov 14: Disney Descendants/Zombies: Worlds Collide Tour at CFG Bank Arena. Expect busier streets and parking near the hotel, so give yourself a little extra time.

Sun, Nov 15: Chris Tomlin, tobyMac and Third Day at CFG Bank Arena.

On stage around town: Charmz: The Other Reindeer at Baltimore Center Stage (through Dec 27) and Sweet Baby Jesus at Spotlighters Theatre (through Dec 6).
