Alakazam

Ben has discovered he has magical powers and he'd like you to witness them. But what even is magic? A bunny out of a hat? A first kiss? Cutting a beautiful lady in two? Only one way to find out, come along.

Alakazam is a non-verbal show helmed by Ben McCarthy, a clown/improviser based in Melbourne.

After a sellout season at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival 2024, Ben is back with a brand new show.
