.Beneath 90,000 square feet of canvas at the Ventura County Fairgrounds, the mood is “Magikal.”
Ventura’s very visible big-top tent houses “Magikaria,” Circus Vargas’ latest show, with performances through Monday.
Circus Vargas promoters are throwing out as many magic-related adjectives as possible to describe the show: “fantastical,” unexplainable,” “mystical,” “hypnotic,” “mesmerizing,” “spellbinding.” Leading the cast of mesmerizes is illusionist Patrick Gable, whose chiseled chest is as captivating as his magic act.
Other performers in this animal-free show include singing ringmaster Kevin Venardos, clowning duo Matti Esqueda and Jon Weiss, “Human Rocket” Leo Garcia (who is launched 75 feet from a cannon), trapeze artists, aerialists, a juggler, wire walkers and more.
Circus Vargas will be at the fairgrounds, 10 W. Harbor Blvd., through Monday. Showtimes are 4:30 and 7:30 p.m. today; 1:30, 4:30 and 7:30 p.m. Saturday; 1, 4 and 7 p.m. Sunday; and 6 p.m. Monday. Arrive 30 minutes early for an interactive preshow catered to kids.
