Joz Norris’s Wikipedia page lists him as a comedian, screenwriter, comic actor and now it seems he can add magician to his page, as he brings Blink to Vault festival. So what show can we expect from an award-winning-comedian-turned-magician? Will we have deft sleight of hand, daring escapology or illusions to blow your mind? Or will he present some classic Derren Brown style mind-bending to leave the audience in awe?
Joz informs us that his younger self, the comedian, is dead and before us is the new older Joz who now a great magician. After dazzling us with some classic magic tricks involving handkerchiefs, hats (naturally complete with rabbit, although this is another story) and canes, the premise of the show is revealed. With the power of an expensive thought-machine that can read the minds of the audience (and think off Joz’s trousers!), by the end of the show Joz will be able to pull off the greatest magic trick of all, the legendary Think Blink! Yes Joz will be able to make the audience blink and have the same thought at the same time!
