Chris Cook Magic / PBH's Free FringeProfessional company

60 minutesSpeakeasy
It's pretty, but is it art? Magician and storyteller Chris Cook weaves a true tale of deception through the lives of an artist, an art forger and a magician. Three men, centuries apart, connected by illusion. A story only a magician could tell about beauty, belief and the fine line between talent and trickery. 'Chris Cook regularly tests the boundaries of what can be defined as a magic show' (WorldMagicReview.com). 'An absolute master of the stage' (BroadwayBaby.com) 'Not just clever sleight of hand and surprise effects... it's also connections between people and occasionally poetry' (Scotsman).
