Theatre: , Cabaret, Tragedy

How Much: £20.00 (Highest Price) , £8.00 (Lowest Price)
Headlong and Nuffield Theatre's oddball co-production penned by Anthony Neilson is about a Victorian magician and freakshow custodian on the verge of retirement.

As he reveals the grisly, tragic, comic and heartbreaking acts in his final show, a picture of a troubled, lonely man emerges. This is a magic cabaret which focuses on emotional isolation and hope, or hopelessness. There's also plenty of dark magic.

Sounds unusual doesn't it but this show has been an off-kilter underground hit over the past six months and should go down a treat in Soho.
