A teeny-tiny magic show, performed LIVE on a big screen!
Join magician Christian Cagigal, as he weaves fairy tales, dark fables and strange happenings into an intimate and engaging evening fraught with wonder, mystery and imagination. Cagigal has been regaling diverse audiences with his unique hybrid of theatre and "slightly creepy" magic for years in Downtown San Francisco’s - EXIT Theatre.
With Obscura, Cagigal returns to his roots as an up-close and personal entertainer, peppering some of his favorite short stories with witty and eccentric demonstrations of close-up card magic and more.
“[A] deeply theatrical narrative that’s startling in it’s originality.”
