The Best of Series 1
and 2 Abracadabra - Wolfgang Riebe
Reviewed by Jack Stephens
Many of you may remember
Wolfgang Riebe when he made quite an impact on the magic scene in the early
nineties. He appeared at The Magic Circle to great acclaim, appeared on BBC TV
and then simply disappeared!
Actually he did not disappear but spent the next few years touring his magic
show all over the world, appering in over 120 countries He then went back to his
native South Africa where he has become the most successfull magician they have
ever had. He hosts a TV series called Abracadabra and has issued 2 DVD's of
highlights from these shows.
So, if you want to sit back, relax and watch a few hours of excellent cabaret
and close up magic, this could be just for you. It makes a change from the
normal teach-in DVD's/videos. Here you just watch a true professional at work.
Great magic, and some great gags and one liners. King Monte, Cut and Restored
Tie, Sword Thru Neck, Shadow Box, Subtitution Trunk and Ultimet Perspex Sawing
In Half are just a few of the effects Wolfgang performs.
For the close-up lover there is lots and lots of walkabout magic too all
performed in Wolfgang's unique style. His sheer love of magic shines through on
each and every trick.
