Simon Taylor Headlines The Butterfly Club, 3/29-4/24

Former psychology student turned award winning entertainer, Simon Taylor, is headlining at The Butterfly Club for the entire Melbourne International Comedy Festival, Tuesday 29 March to Sunday 24 April.

He knows what you are thinking, how you are thinking it and will make you laugh out loud as he tells you.

Simon says "Pieces of Mind is a show about solving the mind's little puzzles. I will teach you how to trick yourself into feeling happier, predict your thoughts and read your mind."

Studies in psychology and a career as an illusionist have rendered him an insightful entertainer. Known for his personable demeanor and energetic performance style, Simon delivers his unique brand of engaging entertainment.

Based in Melbourne, Simon has produced many sold out stage shows, and won the 2009 Adelaide Magic Convention. He is regularly sought after by science groups and academics for his understanding of human behaviour and insight into the construction of illusion.

Come see why Simon Taylor's show has been described as ‘a refreshing alternative in the entertainment scene' (The Vine) and ‘charming, amusing, intellectually captivating entertainment' (The Herald Sun).

‘That was the most amazing thing I have ever seen in my life!' - Magic 1278 ‘Inimitable, talented and rather dashing' - Beat Magazine ‘Humorous, edifying, literally amazing' - Taryn Pollock (ArtsHub)
