Impossible occurrences

Illusionist Luke Hocking performs Impossible Occurrences weekly at the Marriott in Melbourne, a five star hotel room rather than a theatre, which tells you most of what you need to know about the scale. The show runs 80 minutes and mixes mind reading, sleight of hand and psychological illusion for a small audience, with capacity deliberately capped. That closeness is the point. It suits corporate groups, couples on a night out, and anyone who has only seen magic from thirty rows back. There's also a dinner and show option, adding two courses at the hotel's Essence restaurant beforehand.
