Based on the live magic show for children, devised and performed by London magician, Christopher Howell. Lyrics, music, and production by Elisabeth Blair. The Magical Island by Christopher Howell was created in 2010 for Stratford Circus Theatre (London). The show blends storytelling, magic, singing and puppetry to captivate young audiences. The beguiling adventure story is about two children who find themselves on a magical island. There they meet a friendly cloaked magician and singing animal puppets who are all cast under the spell of the pirates who live there. The children's mission: to break the spell of the pirates! A Magic Circle magician, Christopher has produced multiple diverse acts including close-up magic, three theatrical magic shows, corporate creativity training and specially-commissioned projects. Elisabeth Blair is a vocalist, composer and artist. She collaborates frequently with performance and conceptual artists.
