For her next trick, Dartmouth Illusionist Lyn Dillies is planning to make hunger in the South Coast disappear.

On Saturday, Sept. 10, Dillies will perform a charity magic show at the Zeiterion Performing Arts Center in New Bedford.

The show will occur at 7 p.m.

All proceeds from the show will go to benefit mobile food markets hosted by YMCA Southcoast. Dillies and her volunteer group Dartmouth United Outreach assist the Dartmouth Y with its weekly markets.

“This family-friendly performance will allow many people to experience my spectacular magic as part of a very special evening on behalf of helping so many folks in need,” Dillies said.

Markets are currently held every Tuesday at the Dartmouth Y located at 276 Gulf Road. On average, according to YMCA Southcoast, up to 500 families are given a weekly meal free of charge.

Volunteers also deliver food to those who are homebound.

“It’s imperative that we keep this program going,” Dillies said. “We’ve seen the need for food assistance quadruple since last summer.”

Tickets are $75 for VIPs, $65/50 for general admission, and $25 for kids ages 12 and under. Those checking out can also use the word “MAGIC30” to get 30% off their tickets.
