The Sydney Festival of Magic & Illusion is coming to The Regent Theatre in Richmond from 8–11 October, bringing together some of Australia’s best magicians alongside international guests for four unforgettable days of magic, mentalism, comedy and illusion.
From spectacular shows in the main theatre to intimate close-up magic in the bar, there’s something to discover around every corner.
Magic Up-Close is the brand new show from Sean Taylor, Gold Star Member of the Inner Magic Circle London, and one of Australia’s best known magicians. After decades working in hotel suites, cruise ships and some of the world’s great theatres, Sean brings his magic up close. So close in fact, there’s nowhere to hide, and you won’t believe your eyes.
This is a hilarious and intimate show with mind blowing magic, offbeat comedy, remarkable true stories and curious coincidences that will test your perception of reality and change the way you view magic.
A VIP audience of just 20 people per night will be admitted to this unique show. Don’t delay as these tickets will sell quickly.
