- Style, originality and fun with a master of illusion and sleight-of-hand
- An electrifying and original magic show for all the family
That’s not possible! Magician Martin Brock loves to astound his audiences by making the (almost) impossible happen right in front of their eyes.
On stage or down among the audience, this stylish performer revels in innovative magic and world-class sleight of hand.
And in Almost Impossible 2.0: Martin Brock they soon find out that his angelic charm is mixed with a wicked sense of devilry.
One moment he’s wooing an audience member with beautiful red roses, the next he’s cheating at poker.
Returning to Edinburgh after last year’s Fringe success, Martin promises an electrifying spectacle.
His hallmark is originality – the tricks are visually stunning and have each been developed from scratch (the finale alone took seven years to perfect).
The show uses perhaps the most advanced technology at the Fringe, with cutting-edge video effects and multiple cameras to give every audience member a front-row view of the magic in minute detail.
It’s all woven together with humour, wit and entertaining anecdotes. Even the music is original.
Top international magicians Penn and Teller have praised his “glamorous and polished work”.
He has had superb international reviews “Prepare to be spellbound” StageWhispers.com.au, “Wonderful and brilliantly magical” ****½ GlamAdelaide.com.au, “One of the best Fringe shows I have seen. Go see it!” ****½ FringeFeed.com.au.
Almost Impossible 2.0 is a truly immersive experience, and ideal for the whole family to enjoy.
Martin says: “Magic is cool – it can be breathtaking, funny, mysterious and even a little bit wicked as well. That’s why I love it, and that’s what my show is all about.
“It’s fabulous to make the seemingly impossible possible, creating something from nothing. Sometimes I have been perfecting a trick for years, so it’s great to see people’s amazement and laughter when it’s done right in front of their eyes.”
Martin grew up in a small town north of Copenhagen, Denmark, and fell in love with magic at the age of four. Having no one to teach him the craft, at a very young age he had to develop his own unique effects.
Nowadays he is in worldwide demand, travelling between continents to entertain audiences from every part of the world.
