The
Mesmerist - Watford Palace Theatre
March Dates
In 2020, Rufus Hound learnt of the death of his estranged grandfather. The last
five years have been a dizzying journey of discovery for Rufus, which culminates
in the headline production of Watford Palace Theatre’s spring season, The
Mesmerist.
The production is a collaboration between Rufus and Watford Palace Theatre, as
he takes his family history and weaves in the discovery that his grandad had
been a magician with the stage name The Mesmerist.
Old boxes Rufus inherited were filled with illusions, journals and props from
his grandfather’s final magic show, previously performed in its entirety only
once at Watford Palace Theatre in 1983. Intrigued, fascinated, out of work
during lockdown and looking for a new project, Rufus learnt the show. This is
that show. That labour of rediscovery and reinvention is uncovered and ready to
be shared, as The Mesmerist is born from a legacy, resurrected from a forgotten
past.
Prepare for magic, mystery and unforgettable theatre as multi-talented actor,
comedian and presenter Rufus Hound (One Man, Two Guvnors, National Theatre; A
Christmas Carol: A Ghost Story, Birmingham Repertory Theatre) takes centre
stage. 2nd to 21st March.
Director: Steve Marmion. Magic Consultant: Scott Penrose. 2nd to 21st March at Watford Palace

Lucy
Darling - UK Tour
April Dates
Award-winning comedian magician Lucy
Darling brings her signature charm and mischief to the UK! Carisa
Hendrix, the performer behind the glamorous 1940s-style socialite Lucy
Darling, is finally bringing her show to the UK, Ireland, and Scotland.
Hendrix has been touring the United States and Canada since she first
captured the world’s attention in December 2024 with one viral TikTok
clip.
The clip of her improvisational crowd work skyrocketed to more than 21
million views. Since then, thousands have flocked to theaters across
America to see the award-winning performer and find out what all the
fuss is about. Her shows have sold out in record time, proof that Lucy
Darling’s blend of wit, sweetness and old-Hollywood glamour has struck a
chord with audiences.
After thousands of internet comments and messages begging Hendrix to
bring Lucy Darling across the pond, a UK and Ireland tour was finally
announced. 'Simply Darling' is a touring variety show designed to give
the fans even more of what they have been craving; the perfect chance to
take a break from reality and indulge in the mischief, sarcasm, and
wonder that we all deserve. The show is part variety spectacular, part
cabaret, part magic show, but always exceptionally darling. April 2026,

The Remarkable Ben Hart - UK Tour
April Dates
Gag
Reflex Proudly Presents The Remarkable Ben Hart. Edinburgh Festival Fringe & UK
Tour. Following sold-out shows around the world, multi award-winning
magician Ben Hart returns to the UK with a brand-new mind-bending theatrical
experience; his most astonishing and impossible show yet.
In The Remarkable Ben Hart, witness a
world-class master of illusion as he reads your mind, manipulates the fabric of
existence, and bends logic to his will. With nothing but his hands, a few simple
objects, and his newly discovered uncanny mental abilities, Ben will peer into
your thoughts, control chance, and make the impossible happen before your eyes.
Witness his original impossibilities live onstage - with no camera tricks and
nowhere to hide.
Ben said "There's nothing like live magic. It's
unpredictable, electric—you can feel the energy shift in the room when something
impossible happens right in front of people's eyes or there is a collective gasp
of amazement. I've always loved that, but this time, something feels different.
For years, I've performed illusions that mimic magic and mind reading, but
lately, I've started to wonder if I've crossed some unseen line... Thoughts come
to me before they should. Choices feel influenced in ways I can't quite explain.
I'm no longer sure where the trick ends and something else begins. This tour is
different—what I can do now feels... real. And that's as thrilling as it is
unsettling..."

Magic Dragon will tour the UK for the very first time with new show
Piff and Pop’s Magic Shoppe for nine dates in September 2026,

unforgettable showmanship. Split in two halves, Act one will feature a
solo act from both Pop (Penn Jillette) and Piff The Magic Dragon, along
with Mr Piffles. Each will take to the stage to showcase their signature
styles of magic, wit and wonder from Penn’s sharp storytelling and
world-class sleight of hand to Piff’s eccentric comedy and offbeat
illusions. Act two will see the pair return to the stage as a duo,
blending their unique talents into a one-of-a-kind double act. Expect
the unexpected as the ‘Dragons’ combine forces into a larger-than-life
finale.
Since 2001, Penn & Teller have headlined
at the Rio Hotel & Casino, earning the distinction of the
longest-running residency in Las Vegas history for a magic act, as well
as numerous awards and accolades including their recent induction into
The Magic Circle. Piff the Magic Dragon, described as “the greatest
performing dragon of all time,” rose to international fame on America’s
Got Talent and quickly became a Las Vegas sensation. Since 2015, Piff
