Unique Magic Show at Seabrooke's Theatre this December

A unique magic show, Mysteries, is opening at Seabrooke’s Theatre in Durban on the 19^th of December.

Created by and starring acclaimed magician Russell Comrie, and directed by South African theatre legend Murray McGibbon, this one-man show explores the nature of secrets and how they shape our perception of magic, of reality, and of ourselves.

Mysteries is unlike any other magic show. Witty, enchanting, and utterly mystifying, it’s a guided tour into the secret world of a master magician. Award-winning magician Russell Comrie takes audiences on a magical journey, performing his own take on the classic tricks of yesteryear, lifting the veil on the gambler’s subtle art, and even reading a mind or several (using only willing participants, of course).

Adding to the festive spirit, Distillery 031, Durban’s premier craft spirit distillery, will be on hand before and after the show, serving delicious craft gins and cocktails (with a smattering of non-alcoholic drinks as well) from their beautiful mobile bar.

The show runs for ±75 minutes, and is suitable for all ages (although it is not recommended for children under ten years old, who may find it difficult to follow).

It’s an intimate theatrical experience unlike any other, not to be missed this festive season!
