Edinburgh International Magic Festival reveals broad line up
The festival, which was launched today, will feature mindreading, cabaret, comedy and magicians from as far afield as Australia, New Zealand and Ukraine.
Artistic director Kevin McMahon said: “Magic demonstrates, in a creative manner, that the human soul has within it the capability to rise above the forces of nature and flourish.
“It is the artistic example that any impossible challenge can be overcome.”
The festival, which runs from 29 June to 6 July, will include a opening night gala at Edinburgh’s Lyceum Theatre.
