Cagigal is among a new crop of illusionists and theatre artists that dares to go beyond the usual bag of tricks and bring you into a world of darkness, mystery and imagination. This work doesn’t attempt to “Blow your brain” or “Freak your mind”, but slowly seep into your subconscious until you have to ask the question, “This isn’t real is it…?” Comments on previous shows by Christian Cagigal: |
