Magic and Medicine is Dr. Ralph Mackintosh's unique one man show that traces the intertwining history of the magical arts and the healing arts. From primitive man's first herbs to the ritual rites of the pagan temples, magic has had a close alliance with medicine.

Using video projections and examples of magic of the eras, history comes alive in a fascinating and informative presentation. Intriguing displays of sleight-of-hand and illusion transport the audience from the time of the early priest-healer-magi to the alchemists of the middle ages and on to the patent medicine shows of the 1900's.
