But Shawn Preston has his way. He’s the house magician at Lime in Greenwood Village. Every Thursday he tries to fool people, the way I’d put it. In his words, “He’s entertaining.”

“I love trying to figure out how people think and how they’re going to react to something that I do,” Preston said. “Seeing that sense of wonder come over somebody’s face and that child-like astonishment when something amazing happens right under their nose, it’s exhilarating for me. That’s what makes my job so great.”
