Hi folks
The gang at International Magic have been really busy over the last few weeks, not only putting the 40th edition of the International Magic ......ovember) but also organising the first London Festival of Magic which will take place the week leading up to the Convention itself. The Festival will feature Workshops and Seminars during the day and performances at night, all taking place at the Bridewell Theatre, Bride Lane, Fleet Street, London. The daytime events are 10:30am for an 11am start and the evening events are 7pm for a 7:30pm start. Here is the schedule of what has been organised:- Monday 14th November Daytime: Marketing For Magicians with Bob Yelland Evening: Monday Night Magic - a varied bill of top class magical and comedy performers. Tuesday 15th November Daytime: Advanced Card Techniques with Guy Hollingworth, Jason England, Ben Earl and Paul Wilson Evening: Hustle! - Double bill of performances.
