My kids are 3 and 5. Will they ( or at least the younger one) be too young to enjoy this?
Absolutely not. Most of the magic is extremely visually exciting and very easy to follow.
There are also two other shows designed specifically for younger kids you might like to check out:
KOBI’S MAGICAL MENAGERIE
WE’RE ON A MISSION WITH KIKKII THE KLOWN
…and The Massive Little Magic Show…!
Hi – what age are most of the children who attend this show?
The audience for ILLUSIONARIUM is right across the board. It’s aimed at primary age children, but a lot of teenagers are coming and enjoying the show too
Is there anything like a magic show to excite and inspire kids? Last Thursday we saw a magic show as part of the Melbourne Magic Festival. The kids got to chose, and after much debate they picked Illusionarium, with Tim Ellis and Sue-Ann Webster.
The audience was jam-packed with kids who giggled and squealed their way through the program. What was really enjoyable for me was that the show worked on several levels. The kids were enthralled by the magic and both kids and adults in stitches from the comedy. I spent a lot of time trying to work how it was done. Although a little corny in parts it was a great show and we all thoroughly enjoyed it.
On the downside I always find the Northcote Town Hall difficult to get to, and awkward because there never seems to be any parking.
I saw Illusionarium on Tuesday morning. The show was great, enjoyable and the magic was EXTREMELY visual. It stars Tim Ellis as Professor Googlefitz and Sue-Anne Webster as herself. It was really funny when Tim Ellis did the trick with the wine glass and bottle, and when Sue-Anne Webster kept on stealing the items from Tim. Nice dance moves Tim!!! All up I would rate Illusionarium 5 stars because it kept me in stitches throughout! Nice job Tim and Sue-Anne!!!
saw the show on friday mourning with my little sister and twin brother.
we were just expecting another corny childrens show but we were wrong
