I’ve been
going to see Colin Cloud at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe for the last five
years now. And every year he never fails to entertain, amaze and astound.
The
illusionist extraordinaire has appeared on the Royal Variety Performance and
recently appeared on America’s Got Talent. His shows at the Fringe are one of
the highlights of the three-week arts and entertainment extravaganza and this
year has proved to be no different.
This year’s
show is called Sinful and for the first time he has a special guest – his
fiancée Chloe Crawford.
The great
man begs the question – are you an honest person? And, having answered – did
you just lie to yourself? Believe me Colin Cloud will know – he knows
everything about you.
He listens
to your whispers and gleans those innermost secrets.
Without
giving too much away, I can say that Colin Cloud is at his most brilliant this
year. I always leave his shows asking myself ‘how the heck did he do that?’ I
don’t know – and, if truth be told given what he knew of some of his
unsuspecting audience the other night, I don’t want to know.
His shows
are utterly compelling – he is simply a genius. His show is well worth the
rather lengthy wait in a queue outside the Grand at the Pleasance, even allowing
the stewards rather messing up the queuing system for Tuesday evening’s
performance.
Colin Cloud
– Sinful is at The Pleasance until 25th August 2019.
