House of Games
House of Games is the new show from Tim Ellis for 2026.
Join us at The Laneway Theatre as we explore the time before screens dominated our lives and rediscover the magic of play.
Every single piece of magic in this show would be the big finish of any other show. It's a big claim, but this is Tim's most ambitious and exciting show ever.
Recommended for ALL AGES, it's a joyous trip back in time with magical versions of Scrabble, Uno, Pictionary, Lego, and so much more.

Tim EllisOrganizer of House of Games
TIM ELLIS has won more awards for his mind-blowing magic than any other Australian in history.
In the process he’s gained an international reputation for his innovative, original and highly entertaining blend of magic and comedy.
Melbourne Magician Tim Ellis has been buried alive, escaped from a wooden crate at the bottom of the Yarra River, freed himself from straitjackets hundreds of feet above city streets, and driven a $100,000 sports car while blindfolded.
Tim has been awarded many titles including ‘Best Stage Magician in Australia’, ‘Best Close up Magician in Australia’, and was the first Australian ever to win twice at the FISM World Championships of Magic. Since then, Tim has also lectured, performed as a guest artist and is now a regular Jury Member at the World Championships.
He has performed many times at Hollywood’s famous Magic Castle, lectured to fellow magicians at The Riviera Hotel in Las Vegas, and headlined at The Grand West Casino in Capetown, South Africa. He also makes special guest appearances on several luxury cruise lines including Royal Caribbean, Holland America and Cunard.
