An hour at the Fringe has never passed more quickly for me than in Travis Bernhardt’s magic show. The guy’s wryly understated presence fuels his humour. There’s even content: Berhardt explores honesty as he deconstructs the magician–audience member relationship. I don’t want to give anything away, but I do want to say that I have no idea how he does any of those amazing things. Oh, and everybody gets to be one of his lovely assistants.
