Comic magicians Justin Williams and Sam Hume bring their combined 17 years in family entertainment to this magical spectacular, which is anything but a typical children’s magic show. The routines from these charismatic performers are unique, hilarious and absolutely out of this world!
Following a complete sell-out run at this year’s Perth and Adelaide Fringe, PLUS the Melbourne International Comedy Festival which saw their entire season sell out before opening night; the pair are finally set to perform for the month at the Edinburgh Fringe with The Greatest Magic Show at the magnificent Palais Du Variete, Assembly George Square Gardens. This sensational season of shows comes after a 2 year hiatus with Showmen Productions having to postpone their trip for Fringe twice due to the COVID-19 global pandemic.
With more whimsical wonders than ever before, the stars Sam and Justin will be hitting the stage with brand new illusions direct from a Las Vegas stage. Their builder worked with David Copperfield and Lance Burton!
After debuting the show in 2018, The Showmen quickly gained enormous success with sell out seasons across Australia, as well as being awarded the weekly award for Best Children’s Show at the 2019 Fringe World, as well as winning the overall Best Kids Show at the 2019 Sydney Fringe.
“We have painstakingly put together completely original routines, bringing together a range of disciplines to deliver a show that is sure to leave an impression. We guarantee the people visiting the Edinburgh Fringe this year have never seen anything like this before!” says Showman, Sam Hume.
Their Ringmaster is played by the incomparable Perth fan-favorite and real life Disney character, Magnus ‘Danger’ Magnus, who will do everything he can to keep the chaotic magic show on track! As an added bonus, every child who attends the show will receive a FREE MAGIC WAND on entry and have their chance to take a photo with the stars of the show after the performance.
They finish with an inspirational, feel good message for all the kids: that is not the size of the wand that matters in this world, but the size of your DREAMS. No matter what you want to achieve in life, if you believe in yourself, you can make your dreams come true!
