Review: Playing The Hand by Darren and Jerryl

Taking control of the cards life deals you. I’ve often thought that magic is all smoke and mirrors, and the day I gained the knowledge that almost all magic can be explained logically, via misdirection and trick props, it became far too easy to be cynical, and think that magic is for kids. But that’s precisely what separates a good magic show from others, where … Continue reading Review: Playing The Hand by Darren and Jerryl

Review: Not Grey – Intimacy, Ageing & Being by T:>works
