American illusionist Dan Sperry is bringing his shocking magical act to Dublin in mid-autumn of this year.

The show will take place on Wednesday, October 24, at the Olympia Theatre.

Sperry is a prodigal illusionist, booking his first paid performance when he was merely 11-years-old. He coined his persona as an “anti-conjurer” early on his career to distinguish himself from other magicians in his field. His performances are horrifically-wonderous: think Marilyn Manson meets David Copperfield.

He made his first major stage debut on America’s Got Talent in 2010, and has gained a large fanbase of “abracabastards” ever since. Since then, his talents have been recognized globally: he’s the youngest magician to headline at Hollywood’s Magic Castle and was awarded the coveted Merlin Award by the International Magicians Society.

Tickets are currently on sale ranging from €38.50 to €48.50.
