Amazing Norvil & Josephine is an unparalleled act featuring a fresh and lighthearted cocktail of magic, accented by spots of acrobatics and singing as this Magic Circle magician joins forces with his acrobat and dancer sidekick. Much more than great magic, also featured in this show are feats of acrobatic skill as the assistant performs her comical contortions while serenaded by the magician's striking baritone singing voice.
The award winning magic they perform can include the assistant being sawed in half, a table being made to float above the stage, and as a finale the two performers - in spite of impossible chains, locks and confinement - change places in mere seconds. All this and much more is performed with their inimitable panache. The act can be adjusted, sized up or down, to suit your venue and needs. Watch the video to see them in action.
Amazing Norvil & Josephine perform regularly around the world in numerous productions and as solo performers in magic, singing, acrobatics and dance.
The act has been presented to great acclaim for audiences of thousands and recent UK public appearances include shows at the Hackney Empire, Leeds City Varieties Theatre and Newbury Corn Exchange as well as for major corporates throughout the UK. It's truly a magical and entertaining performance unlike any other.
