Having astonished, amazed and entertained a number of celebrities, personalities and members of the public with his weekly prime time TV show titled ‘Magic with Mo’ on SABC3, South African magician Mo Magic has embarked on a nation wide theatre tour. With multiple sold out performances across the country, the magician will now perform for one night at The Ridge Casino.
This show is taking place on October 1 at 20:00.
A first of its kind for South Africa, the TV show gained a tremendous following from the viewing public and rose to second most watched South African TV show on SABC3 behind Isidingo. Additionally, the only international shows with larger viewerships were Bold and the Beautiful and Days of our Lives, both on air for decades with a long standing following. The magician said:
“I’m thrilled the TV show was so well received. South Africans are clearly appreciating the art of magic and I’m honoured to be sharing it with them.”
An honours degree graduate in electronic engineering, Mo resigned from a lucrative career as a project manager, in 2010, to pursue his passion for the art of magic.
The magician said,
“2015 brought with it the realisation of my dream, to share the art of magic with South Africans regularly on TV, taking it to them in their homes. During 2016, I plan to take the art of magic to people in their towns and cities to experience live.”
This being his 14th year with the art of magic, the audience can expect to see some of the magic, mentalism (mind reading magic) and stunts as seen on the TV show, and other routines saved especially for the 90 minute theatre show. He will also have you in stitches with his clean comedy and witty ad-libs. The magician says,
“I’m ecstatic that audiences across the country are enjoying my theatre show and am excited to bring my show to Mpumalanga. This is the very first time I will perform my theatre show in the province.”
The brand ambassador for Child Welfare Durban and District, Mo Magic will also be using the tour to spread awareness into the contribution made by the organisation towards ‘giving childhood back to children’ and has combined a message with an illusion in the show to spread the news.
The magician’s ambitious nation wide tour makes history in that this is the first time a South African magician will tour every province with a theatre show, combining magic, mentalism and comedy. The show will then travel internationally.
Tickets for “MO MAGIC” are available through Computicket and bookings are now open.
Tickets are R150 each and no children u.6 is allowed.
