An Introvert's Guide to Magic

About the show
An Introvert's Guide to Magic is a free comedy magic show performed by George Hunt as part of PBH's Free Fringe. George won Best Comedy Magic Act and Stage Magician of the Year at the Bristol Magic Awards in the year prior, and the show is built around the idea that you don't need to be an extrovert to astonish. Audiences can expect incredible tricks, nerdy puzzles and the chance to learn some magic themselves — no eye contact required. The show runs for 55 minutes at the Ballroom venue and is suitable for those aged 18 and over. Audience participation is involved.
Why see this show?
A magician who has dispensed with showbiz bluster in favour of nerdy charm. Free to attend, and you might actually leave knowing a trick or two. The no-eye-contact promise alone is reassuring.
