WIN TICKETS: Audiences love to take part in the action when Marcel Oudejans performs his comedy-infused magic. Huge objects are produced, minds are read, needles are consumed and forks melted into pieces.
And when it's over, the crowds leave, still laughing from sheer surprise and pleasure.
Oudejans, who will perform at this year's Festival in Sleight of Mouth: The Art of Talking Your Way Out of Anything, has been performing professionally as an entertainer for well over a decade.
His shows include three years' performing for the Madame Zingara restaurant group, and gigs at casinos, luxury hotels, and for hundreds of blue-chip corporate audiences. His volunteers are treated as instant partners in his astonishing act.
Marcel represented South African magic at the Vismayam International Magic Convention in India in May 2008.
In March 2012 his debut one-man show, Sleight of Mouth, was sold out and received rave reviews for its entire six-week run.
The Cape Times described his act as one "…of deceptions, belly laughter and lots of surprised gasps…".
It's a perfectly blended combination of classical sleight-of-hand magic, eye-popping visual illusions, modern-day humour and wit that makes you stare in wonder and surprise – and leaves you laughing out loud.
