The Ritz Theater in Newburgh welcomes world-famous mentalist The Amazing Kreskin for two mind-bending shows. The Amazing Kreskin has captivated audiences for over six decades on popular shows including Johnny Carson and is considered the mentalist guru of an entire generation. In his upcoming performance, The Amazing Kreskin will attempt to find a check hidden somewhere in the theater lobby—if he fails, he will forfeit his fee. Additionally, Kreskin will offer $1 million to anybody who can prove that he uses any secret assistance to help him perform his mentalist effects. David Letterman says, “Kreskin should sue the producers of the TV show ‘The Mentalist’ for stealing his act. He’s the best mentalist in the world and he’s not acting!” Saturday, March 24, at 3pm and 8pm. $25. Ritz Theater, Newburgh. (845) 784-1199.
