Amaze pulls back the curtain on Jamie Allan's lifelong love affair with magic, from fumbling with his first trick deck to pioneering iPad illusions that revolutionized the industry. Under the direction of Jonathan Goodwin (himself a renowned escapologist), the show brings the distant allure of magic in an interactive show that brings the audience closer to the performer. On a simple set laden with childhood memorabilia, Allan invites the audience to witness the metamorphising power of believing in the impossible.
