Theatre of Magic back by popular demand for 2025 series
After four sold-out shows in September of this year, Theatre of Magic is returning by popular demand to The Empire for a six-month series of performances.
Showcasing Australia’s best magicians and illusionists in an up close and intimate setting, Theatre of Magic is an exclusive theatre experience of captivating illusion, comedy and close-up conjuring.
Opening on January 18 with the first of the six dates, Theatre of Magic includes two performances per night, hosted within a secret room inside the Empire Theatre.
Theatre of Magic founder and comedy magician, Christopher Wayne said he was looking forward to returning to Toowoomba and taking audiences back to the golden age of magic and live entertainment.
“One of the amazing things about magic is that the experience changes for both the magician and the audience in every show,” Mr Wayne said.
“We have a rotating cast of Australia’s best magicians, to ensure that no two nights of Theatre of Magic are the same,” he said.
Our audiences can expect two things; world class magic and five-star hospitality.
