4. Magic and Illusion

Clockwork MysteriesExternal takes its audience on a bizarre and fascinating journey through Time. Within seconds of taking the stage, Ted and Marion Outerbridge fuse their revolutionary illusions with split-second artistry – holding their audience spellbound. With the help of an elaborate Victorian time machine, the performers invite the audience into a mysterious clock tower equipped with a variety of timekeeping devices. They become part of a race against time, experience time accelerating and slowing down, and participate in predicting the contents of a time capsule. Keeping their audience enthralled from the first astonishing illusion to the spectacular finale, the Outerbridges create an experience that far exceeds expectations. Details
