Project Overview

The Meeker County Fair is excited to have the "Dr. Street Magic Show." Nick Sharpe works through the Homeward Bound Theatre Company in Chanhassen, Minnesota. He has a passion for magic and recycling. Through his strolling performances Friday through Sunday he will encounter many people. Nick has been enjoyed by hundreds of thousands of people in over 24 different countries and even in some remote parts of North Dakota. He facilitates audience participation with a twist of comedy, dazzling the multitudes with magic.

Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The outcome for Nick Sharpe's show is an understanding of recycling presented in a new way. His performance will be on a more "come and go" basis as he is strolling around the fairgrounds for 3 days. It would be estimated that 5,000 fairgoers could be touched by his message based on an average fair attendance.
