The Curious Cabaret: BEESTON

The Curious Cabaret is back, bringing you an evening of legerdemain, laughter and libations, hosted by Member of The Magic Circle, Chris Wilder - Two thirds professional wizard, one quarter magical idiot, and the remaining three eighths mathematical genius!

Mixing stand-up with physical comedy and magic, Sam Fletcher brings his original and unique flavour to this month’s line up at The Curious Cabaret.

Whether it is a dance involving an invisible dog, swallowing needles (and then regurgitating them back up) or making tea in the most inventive way, Sam will leave you in hysterics with his impressive illusions.

“No other show has made me smile so much this year” **** Independent 

——————

A master mentalist and collector of curious effect, The Unusualist is not your normal magician. He is the hilarious theatrical sensation from England with charismatic wit that's kooky, sassy and akin to if Dame Edna and John Cleese had a son with a magic wand.

He has delighted and mystified guests at private parties, member’s clubs, and in his sell-out cabaret show in London’s West End, for almost 20 years.

You best bring your garlic this month...as we will also be joined by - "D" The Psychic Vampire.

With a tongue as pointed as his boots and a sense of humour as dark as his wardrobe, D can give the impression he's stepped right out of a Grimm fairytale, but don't get the wrong idea - he's got a lighter, frivolous side. Just look at the hat collection.

Also….not your normal magician, The Unusualist is the hilarious theatrical sensation from England with charismatic wit that's kooky, sassy and akin to if Dame Edna and John Cleese had a son with a magic wand.

He has delighted and mystified guests at private parties, member’s clubs, and in his sell-out cabaret show in London’s West End, for almost 20 years and so The Curious Cabaret is natrually delighted that he will be closing the show this month.
