Edfringe Review: Ben Hart: HeX

The mystifying illusions of Ben Hart leave everyone scratching their heads in disbelief. Hart excels at using the space of the Palais du Variete, transforming it into a realm of enchantment. Hanging lanterns enhance the air of mystery that Hart masterfully creates, making it feel as though you are embarking on a magical journey alongside him. Embracing the spooky atmosphere, Hart seamlessly incorporates the supernatural with a captivating ouija board-inspired trick.

Hart astounds the audience with a mesmerising ring trick, using rings borrowed from audience members to prove its authenticity as they magically bond together. The show strikes the perfect balance of Hart’s irresistible charisma intertwined with engaging crowd interactions.

Storytelling is also a crucial element of the performance. One standout tale involves a fable about greed, accompanied by sand cascading onto the stage from above, reminiscent of an hourglass.

This dazzling magic show offers late-night fun for the entire family. You will want to sit as close as possible in hopes of catching him out, but no one ever does.

Ben Hart, HeX, Assembly, 18.20, Until August 25
