New magic show Impossible comes to West End in July

Impossible, a new show billed as "the biggest magic show in decades", will run for five weeks at the Noël Coward Theatre from 24 July to 29 August 2015.

According to publicity material, the show will feature "the very best magicians and tricksters from around the world, fusing dazzling grand stage illusions, up-close-and-personal magic, cutting-edge technological tricks and death-defying escapology".

The line-up includes escapologist Jonathan Goodwin, mind-reader Chris Cox, psychological trickster Katherine Mills, magician Ben Hart and "digital marvel" Jamie Allan, with more acts still to be announced.

The Noël Coward is a fitting venue venue seeing as Harry Houdini, the most famous magician of all time, performed there.

Directed by Anthony Owen, known for his work with Derren Brown, Impossible features scenic design by Andrew D Edwards, lighting design by Tim Lutkin, video design by Duncan McLean and sound design by Gareth Owen.

It's produced by Jamie Hendry Productions.
