About
A children's magic show named for the classic card trick (la carta elegida, "the chosen card"), where a kid picks a card and the magician finds it again. It is part of the family show series at Centro Cultural Federico Chueca, Hortaleza's district cultural center, and a low-stakes way to try live magic with kids who have never seen it up close.
Where it is
Centro Cultural Federico Chueca (Hortaleza)
CALLE BENITA AVILA 23, 28043
