A thrilling and spectacularly terrifying show, Magic War at Soho Theatre is the ultimate Halloween treat for all magic/horror lovers this autumn. With live beheadings and all kinds of frightening illusions on show, this is one for those who genuinely love to be scared.

Performed by one woman magician Marisa Carnesky, Magic War at Soho Theatre is astonishing show where audience members get to have their heads guillotined from their necks all as part of the ticket price. Starting off with innocuous tricks, the show progressed to the point where the audience are invited to get in on the act and up the level of fear.

An unmissable Halloween show, the performances are peppered with a dark comic humour and many thrilling visual illusions. Nightmarish tricks that will have you questioning your own ethics as well as attempting to contemplate how it is all achieved. Trained by the magcian responsible for the trickery in the Harry Potter films, Marisa has taken classic magic tricks and not only reworked them in her own scary way, but introduced a level of morality that the audience will only find more frightening than the trick alone.

Having been cut in half in front of 5,000 people in the Blue Peter Proms at the Royal Albert Hall, Marisa is now giving you the chance to be decapitated live on stage with the Magic War at Soho Theatre. Be warned - this show is most definitely not for the faint hearted.

Please note that there are no shows on the 4th, 5th and 8th November. If you would like to book tickets for Magic War at Soho Theatre phone 0870 429 6883 for more information or visit the official website below.
