PORT ANGELES — Hart Keene of television’s “America’s Got Talent” will bring his magic, mind reading and comedy routine to Peninsula College’s PUB stage Thursday, Nov. 7.

The 7 p.m. concert is free, but people are encouraged to bring canned food as a donation for the Associated Student Council’s November/December food drive.

The college is located at 1502 E. Lauridsen Blvd.

Keene performed before more than 400 students at the annual Washington Community and Technical College Leadership Institute in September — and captured the attention of Peninsula College programmers in attendance.

“I’m really excited to bring Hart to PC,” said Candi Roland, Associated Student Council vice president of programming.

“He’s a magician and comedian all rolled into one. He is really exciting to watch, and I’m looking forward to seeing what he has in store for us at this upcoming show.”

ASC adviser Rick Ross also had high praise for Keene.

“We’ve seen a number of magic shows over the years, and we’ve never booked one because they’re always so cheesy,” Ross said.

“Hart’s show was different. It was top drawer. He’s a very talented illusionist, he’s entertaining, and my student leaders really enjoyed him.”

Keene’s appearance is sponsored by the ASC.
