Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Now that was entertainment in its purest form. Lukes ability to not only perform his incredible repertoire, but to engage and involve his audience was worthy of a standing ovation. If you are looking for a fantastic evening, put this one on your list. Thanks Luke ... dare I say it ... that was magic !!

My girlfriend and I really enjoyed the magic show. It's like stepping back in time for 75 minutes to an old London magic theatre. No complaints with the show, although there was a large group of young hipsters in the audience who took away from the experience by turning up late, having too much to drink, being quite vocal and just generally being annoying. Perhaps a locked door policy so that tardy audience members don't ruin it for the rest?

Thanks for your review and feedback. If guests are late they may need to wait up to 10 - 15 minutes until they can enter. Glad to hear you still enjoyed the show!

I'm generally apprehensive about magic shows, but this one was absolutely amazing the whole way through. Luke managed to maintain engagement with the audience with every single magic performance, which was magnified by the smaller amount of people that are accounted for for each show. My friends and I greatly enjoyed it - we're still asking ourselves how he managed to accomplish even half of what he did. My personal favourite of the evening was the one involving the whole audience and the four cards we all were given at our seats. Definitely worth checking out.

I have seen Impossible Occurrences twice now and quite possibly will be back again later this year. An amazing show that appears to defy logic. Highly recommend a visit and a great gift idea for those friends that are hard to buy for. 10/10.

My daughter is seven years old. Is this a good show to bring her to?
Written 25 July 2017
Hi Leticia, thanks for your question.
Yes the show is suitable. But so you know the show is not aimed towards young children. We do recommend it for ages 10 plus, but do often get kids much younger coming along : )
