Overview

Showman Live Ltd presents
James Phelan: The Man Who Was Magic


Dare to believe in magic as the UK’s #1 magic show returns with a completely new and uplifting production. 

You’re invited to a night of wonder, as secrets unravel and the impossible becomes possible. 

‘Barely skips a beat. One to watch in the world of magic’ (The List)

Following an unprecedented 5 years of sold-out shows around the world – this five star magic show guarantees to leave you aching with laughter and dizzy in disbelief. 

Presented by world-renowned award winning magician James Phelan, the first magician in history to sell out a solo-run at The Magic Circle – and most infamous for jamming the BBC switchboard after he correctly predicted the lottery. 

Don’t miss what The Standard calls ‘An unforgettable evening we can’t stop talking about‘.
