As a fan of magic I try to catch as many “magic shows” at the Fringe as I can. This show was a standout! Fringe audiences were treated to high caliber, mind blowing Las Vegas quality effects far beyond the small theater. This show deserves a standing place in a large theater. The show was standing room only when I went, so hopefully it will be around so more can see it. See this show if you can!... full review

BETSY COX certified reviewer June 27, 2025
I really appreciated how Benjamin shared a true life story from his past experience in an abusive relationship with his ex. It’s so rare for men to open up about these kinds of stories, and it made the show even more powerful and relatable. That story had me completely locked in — I couldn’t peel my eyes off him. It added such depth and vulnerability to the performance, making it all the more impactful.... full review

Really amazing magic, completely perplexing. It took a lot of courage for him to talk about all the personal stuff, which made it more like a one man show and not just a magic show. ... full review

ANONYMOUS certified reviewer June 23, 2025
An uneven show throughout - I am not leaving a review to write cheap shots, but to give honest and hopefully helpful constructive criticism. The show was billed as a magic show but there were only four magic tricks, and one of them didn't work. A lot of the show was a monologue about the host's toxic relationship with his ex, which if I had known that from the beginning I might not have come. As a whole, the show generally felt flat - the jokes, the magic, the audience interaction.... full review
