About Dan Bastianelli Magician
Dan Bastianelli: Identity is a magic show performed by Dan Bastianelli Magician at Theatre 1 at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Using sleight-of-hand, personal stories and honest deception, the show explores the question of how you can know anything when you don't even know yourself. Dan Bastianelli brings a brand-new magic experience to the Fringe, running 50 minutes. The show has an age guidance of 12 and over, includes audience participation, and tickets are priced at £12.
Why see this show?
Magic combined with genuinely personal storytelling and a philosophical question at its heart — Identity is not a standard illusions show. The 50-minute running time keeps things tight, and audience participation is central to how the deception unfolds.
