ARLINGTON — This year's Arlington Relay For Life to support the American Cancer Society is taking this year's theme of "Relay is Magic" literally on Sunday, May 6.

Professional magician and comedian Bruce Meyers will be performing at the Linda M. Byrnes Performing Arts Center for one show only at 3 p.m. that day, with all proceeds from his show going to the American Cancer Society via the Arlington Relay For Life.

Meyers received the trophy in Vancouver, B.C., for "2012's Best Comedy Magician" and received the "Children's Magician of The Year" award in 2011. He and his wife Jennifer promise to present a show that will be fun for the whole family.

Bruce Meyers has helped raise millions of dollars for various charities and many needy causes, and is proud to help out the Arlington Relay For Life.

"The noblest art is that of making others happy," Bruce Meyers said. "That's real magic. We take great joy in doing so. It's what we do."

Tickets are $10 each and can be purchased at Arlington Copy, Mail & More, as well as Eagle Family Dental or Flowers by George, or simply by calling 425-387-5180.

Tickets will also be available at the door on the day of the performance.
