It's weird that an actual wizard would focus his efforts on close up magic but here we are.
Prepare to never believe anything ever again.
First and foremost, this show is so funny you should pack another set of dry underpants.
Kamal Alaeddine masterfully makes the absurd completely relatable as he winds a wildly hilarious yarn. The quality of his performance ability is revealed during brief breaks in the onslaught of punchlines for moments of wistful reminiscence. Here, one cannot help but recognize Leif Oleson-Cormack's influence.
A stunning performance by Onika Henry who served as a talented medium for the powerful narrative captured in this densely packed, emotionally charged and inspirational monologue.
Keep watch for this piece and performer in future Fringes.
