THE stress was taken out of Christmas shopping when members of the IW Magic Circle entertained shoppers at Tesco.
Six members of the Island group took to the Ryde store’s aisles and queues with more than 200 illusions performed each day.
The annual event, sponsored by Tesco, saw performances by the IW Magic Circle’s chairman, Brian Baffles, Sideshow Dave, Carlos, Chris Philpott and newcomers Kyle and Richard.
Families were also invited to participate in some tricks.
