A new, magic-filled Holmes & Watson adventure for all the family!

“One of my favourite magicians!” – Derren Brown on Peter Clifford (Holmes)

The Masked Magician has disappeared! Dead? Kidnapped? In hiding?

After a month, Scotland Yard is baffled and call in the only two people who could solve this mystery!

When Holmes finally uncovers the startling and surprising secrets of the Masked Magician, he, Watson and the audience have to decide… are some mysteries best left that way?

From four of the most mischievously creative minds, this is an exciting new family show filled with mayhem, mirth, mystery and magic!

Peter Clifford is a Bristol-based actor, writer and magical advisor for theatre and television, stated by ​​popular mentalist and illusionist Derren Brown as “One of my favourite magicians!” The Great Baldini is a magical legend, a relict of the music halls and a theatrical performer of the old school. He is a hugely entertaining stage and close-up magician.​
