Magician Mark Benthimer promises that a beautiful woman will crawl right through the center of his chest during a Saturday show at Three Rivers Mall in Kelso.

"Lovely show girls appear and disappear at his whim!" according to a press release. Benthimer added that it's a family show with nothing risque.

Along with dancers, the show includes Scott Davis, a comedian and ventriloquist.

The show starts at 6 p.m. Saturday at Interstate Autos, formerly the Emporium, where a stage with curtain, theatrical lights and folding chairs will be set up.

Tickets cost $15 for adults, $9 for children 13 and younger and $45 for a family of four.

Benthimer has been a magician since he was a teenager. He's performed at the Spirit Mountain and Chinook Winds casinos and at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, and soon heads overseas for 52 days to entertain troops in the Middle East, he said.

Last fall, he opened the MagicFest Magic Shop at the Three Rivers Mall, joining similar businesses at Jantzen Beach and in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

Advance tickets are available at the MagicFest Magic Shop at the mall or by calling (360) 501-6241 or (503) 735-0600.
