Chris Cox - Fatal Distraction - LONDON SHOWS

Postby chriscox » Feb 14th, '12, 11:54



Hi All,

Thought I'd give you a heads up that after a hugely successful Edinburgh Fringe run and UK tour, I'll be touring New Zealand then will bring the award winning Fatal Distraction back to London for two big shows. It'd be lovely to see any of you there.

Here are all the details

Chris Cox: Fatal Distraction
at the E4 Udderbelly, London – 29th May and 19th June 2012 at 9pm
https://www.underbelly.co.uk/node/423537 TICKETS NOW ON SALE

Chris Cox returns to London's Southbank with his award winning show Fatal Distraction for two performances only at the E4 Udderbelly Festival at 9pm on the 29th May & 19th June 2012 with tickets costing £12.50.

Fatal Distraction is the fifth brand new show from the multi award-winning, five star, fringe sell-out, mind reader who can’t read minds, Chris Cox. He’s been on TV, toured the world and is somehow still getting away with it. Fatal Distraction has picked up a magical hat full of 5 star reviews and won the 2011 Venue Magazine award for best comedy show.
Chris will be doing things he shouldn’t be able to do with the fringe brochure, performing tricks nobody has ever done before, controlling coincidence, probing theories of fate and answering the FAQ: ‘Can you use this stuff on girls?’. Determined to deliver the most satisfying hour possible Chris will be handing control over to his audience by giving them the power to control his actions with their minds. Cox manages to mix a love based narrative with some of the most unique and incredible mind-reading effects ever seen on the stage.

Breathtakingly accurate, his predictions are a mongrel hybrid mix of psychology, magic, body language, influencing, comedy, devilish good looks, and lying. He constantly astonishes audiences with cutting-edge and highly imaginative stunts, charmingly delivered with a warm and mischievous sense of fun.

Chris already knows you won’t buy a ticket, why not prove the geeky mind reader wrong?
Please bring your mind for reading purposes.

'One of the most exciting entertainers in Britain…the hottest ticket in town’ The Guardian
‘Stunning.... has other magicians scratching their heads.' The Times
‘Does tricks that would make Jesus proud. A truly talented performer, with simply astonishing tricks, prepare to be amazed.’ Time Out
'Hugely entertaining' The Observer
'We are clearly in the hands of a master technician – MUST SEE!' The Stage
'He's brilliant, he'll blow your mind!' Ricky Gervais


What the press say about Fatal Distraction
‘Genuinely baffling… very impressive’ **** Mark Shenton, The Sunday Express
‘Astonishing bits of magic…simply brilliant…this is an act well worth seeing’ **** Paula Murray, The Express
‘Astonishing feats of jiggery-pokery from “the mind-reader who can’t read minds”; a kind of Derren Brown for the E4 generation, blessed with oodles of on-stage pep.’ The Independent
‘Some truly astonishing feats of mind reading, slickly performed with skill and showmanship by master magician Chris Cox.’ **** Time Out
‘Mind Reading with a twist, it was breathtaking and brilliant.’ The Guardian
‘Extraordinary, forced me to reconsider my review star-rating policy, as five stars almost seems to miserly for this show… executed to perfection …stunning…so consistently astounding that the magical and remarkable became common place and customary…book your ticket immediately.’ ***** ThreeWeeks.
‘I had to cover my mouth to conceal the fact it was hanging open in a mix of shock and excitement…a bewildering talent…a world class act…a magnificent experience for anyone” ***** Fringe Guru
“The boy has enough energy to power the National Grid; he talks so fast it’s a wonder he doesn’t burn his lips…How does he do it? He’s probably made a pact with Satan, but what the hell – this is top entertainment.” **** Venue Magazine
“A slick show expertly delivered” ***** The Public Reviews.

Thanks Miriam. Hopefully some others will come across and see how mentalism can be presented in a very different way. All the stuff I talked about in my lecture at the International Convetion will be evidenced in the show.

Just thought I'd remind you guys about this. The show is currently getting rave reviews on my current New Zealand tour.. including this one by a magician (http://paulromhanymagic.myshopify.com/b ... s-cox-show)

It'll be my last London shows before I jet back to LA to do my TV series.

Chris

A little reminder that the show is back in London on the 19th June. It recieved a 5 star review in The Sunday Express last weekend. It's a good chance for mentalists and magicians to see a completely unique mentalism show.
