First show at Artscape Theatre sold out, second show adde

The Imagine! Family Magic Spectacular, South Africa’s biggest magic show, will feature the enchanting magicienne Lee Cohen from Melbourne, Australia, when it dazzles Capetonian audiences at the Artscape Theatre on Saturday 3 June, 2017.

With tickets for the first show having vanished in the blink of an eye, a must-see second performance of the Imagine! Spectacular, once again presented by the College of Magic, Cape Town’s only magical arts organisation, will be staged at 2h30pm.

A magical extravaganza unlike any other and featuring an amazing cast of more than 50 top children’s entertainers, illusionists, jugglers, mimes and more, the Imagine! Spectacular played to sold-out audiences in 2016. This year’s edition of incredible illusions and dazzling magic is sure to be even more fantastical with the addition of the internationally renowned Cohen performing her special brand of walk-about magic as her enthralling onstage persona, Fairy Lee,

Cohen, a second generation magician and past president of the Australian Institute of Magic, takes her position as one of the few female magicians in the world very seriously.

In her quest to inspire young girls, she discovered parents and children alike perceive magic to be tied to their fascination with fairies and the Fairy Lee character, with an entire show built around this mystical character, was born.

A talented musician, makeup artist and TV presenter who has captivated crowds with her magic in Hong Kong, Korea and  the United States of America; this is the beguiling performer‘s second visit to South Africa.

Spectacular audiences are in for a magical treat as Fairy Lee will be roaming the halls of Artscape before and after the stage show where anything and everything is possible. She’ll charm families with her fairy magic words, fairy dust and a possible special appearance in the foyer by her very special best friend, a beautiful rabbit named Hey Presto.

Cohen is thrilled at the opportunity to share a touch of magic with Capetonian audiences:

“Magic fans around the world seem to love fairies as much as I do and I’m sure the Mother City is no different! I look forward to capturing their imaginations and getting to meet so many new friends at the Imagine! Spectacular. ”

The College of Magic, now in its 37th year of teaching the art of magic and its allied arts as well as vital life-skills to children and adults, regularly hosts international magicians at their mega magical events.

The College, a  non-profit organisation, and the only one of its kind in the world, is delighted to have Cohen join its Imagine! Spectacular as a special fairy guest at the Artscape this June:

“Each year, we dream up bigger and better ways of making the Imagine! show even more spectacular. What an amazing opportunity for young people to get to meet a real live magical fairy - this year’s show is one not-to-be-missed!”, says David Gore, director of the College of Magic.

Proceeds from the show will be used in aid of the organisation’s Umlingo Outreach initiative which provides holistic life skills to young people in need.
