Magic’s Search For Meaning

“Magic’s Search For Meaning, an hour full of magic, storytelling, and unexpected poignancy.“ Fourth Wall Media, 2021

If you could speak directly to your chosen art, what would she say? Would she smile on you like an old friend, or offer you a stinging rebuke? Would she be pleased to claim you as her representative, or would she rather pretend you had never met? Join multi-award-winning magician Michel Fouche as he explores these questions in an interactive theatre experience.

More than just a magic show, this is a journey into the very heart of magic to ask. Is there still meaning in this ancient art form?
