This rich, multilayered production from the Netherlands’ acclaimed Het Filiaal theatermakers is sure to captivate the whole family with live music, impressive illusions, magical puppetry and marvellous tricks.
The Great Illusionist is at heart an ode to the unsung hero of magic, the magician's assistant... whether human or rabbit.
