Master of the Macabre

Darkly autobiographical journey of the enigmatic Benedict Barber, a magician with a taste for the ghoulish and grisly. Featuring many illusions to surprise and shock, and staged in the ‘eminently atmospheric’ Waterloo Vaults, Benedict leads the audience through his life in magic so far, from card tricks on the playground, to more dangerous artifice, and an investigation of other worldly phenomena that could even cause the sceptical to wonder. Billed as “the most terrifying magic show you will ever see…”
