Morgan & West: Parlour Tricks, Review

todayAugust 16, 2014

Background

★★★

Pleasance Dome (Venue 23) | 19:00 |  £12 |

The time travelling tricksters Morgan & West are back at this year’s festival.  Set in a Victorian panelled lounge along with some rather quirky backing music the show transports us back to a time where parlour ticks were commonplace and magicians were very polite gentlemen.

I won’t spoil any of the ticks involved in the show but it’s fair to say I have no idea how they did any of them. The duo are entertaining and endearing to the audience with some fun moments where you would think they are an old married couple. Don’t expect any massive flashy distractions in this show but prepare to be thoroughly charmed and confused.

Morgan And West are performing at the Pleasance Dome from Aug 17-25 at 7pm for tickets and more information click HERE.
