About the show
The suave but totally inept magician and his cameraman are back trying to film the ‘Darren de Lusion Christmas Special’ live on the streets of your town.
Under the expert diretion of Barry the cameraman (ex Animal Hospital), Darren (ex Butlins) performs his ‘astonishing’ seasonal illusions, mind reading and escapology to astounded shoppers.
Excellent and brilliantly witty...everything a promotor prays for. - J Hogan, Highland Festival
Yeah, But What Really Happens?
Darren circulates performing Tommy Cooper style spoof magic and mind reading whilst taking himself completely seriously. Barry the camera man tries to ‘film’ material for a street magic show, involving the audience, directing them, re-shooting scenes and trying to keep the prima donna magician in control.
Normally what happens is we perform 3 or 4 ten minute pieces to small to medium sized groups, moving on as needed. Great for festivals, outdoor events and table hopping. Can also be performed as a 30 minute cabaret stage show.
