Returning for a third year! Chris Tennant brings "The Secret Show" to Barnstaple! This is an intimate performance of award winning close up magic and sleight of hand!
"Chris Tennant has been bringing a taste of the Magic Circle to Barnstaple’s Fringe Theatre for years now, and I like to think he is becoming somewhat legendary in the lineup." - Jo Fisher
Each show is unique, showcasing magic designed to fool and delight interspersed with anecdotes from his nearly 20 year performing career.
The Secret Show allows Chris to perform some of his favouite magic routines, in particular ones that he is unable to perform at his normal venues or events. This includes his wedding, corporate and even TV creations that didn't make it to air!
