(Brendon Peel)

Is it real or is it all a trick? - the only way to answer this question is to witness it for yourself in Brendon Peel’s brand-new show, The Trickster. South Africa’s busiest theatre illusionist returns to Durban to perform at the Rhumbelow Theatre with jaw-dropping illusions, never before seen feats, and mind-blowing magic.

“I love Durban, and the people of Durban have been so friendly and supportive. I’m really excited to be coming back to perform in such an amazing theatre,” says Peel.

The Trickster is a show filled with mentalism, mind games, psychological illusion, card tricks as well as classic magic tricks. All of these disciplines of magic are blended together with Peel’s quick wit and elegant charm.
