The LA Times likened him to Houdini, The Herald Sun hailed him “a supercharged showman” and Nine News labelled him a “daredevil performer”.
Don’t miss world renowned Australian magician Cosentino when he brings his jaw-dropping blend of magic, dance and illusion to Brisbane from Tuesday 29 March - Saturday 2 April 2011.
With a Guinness World Record and several Helpmann Award nominations under his belt, Cosentino is famous for his traditional magic, grand illusions and nail-biting escapes.
It all started when, at just 12 years of age, Cosentino began presenting his illusions to family and friends. By the end of that year he had refined and developed his show to such a level that he won first prize at the Adelaide Magic Convention.
Through sheer determination, constant perseverance and a seemingly endless well of inspiration and imagination, Cosentino pursued his childhood dream and continues to elude and amaze audiences across the globe.
This is your chance to get up close to Cosentino’s magic mysteries and great escapes in a new show that will distort your perception of reality and leave you on the edge of your seat. Book early to avoid disappointment!
