The show runs for two hours including an interval. Two hours are required for get in and one hour for get out.
Who are the target audience for the show?
The target audience is adults and families with older children (12+). There is absolutely nothing offensive in the show; but some of the anecdotes and jokes, particularly in the first half, will be lost on younger children.
What are the main selling points for the show?
Magic has universal appeal and yet very rarely do audiences have a chance to experience the excitement and exhilaration of seeing it live. On top of the magic there are non-stop laughs throughout, making it an unbeatable combination for everybody to enjoy. Magic is an ancient art but here it is brought right up to date in a modern day, humorous and sophisticated format.
