Reviews
'Entertained the jet-setters and locals' - New York Times
'Feminine energy in the form of US magician Erica Vanlee. Erica made parasols appear out of thin air, did magic with linking rings, and made burnt, broken bits of cotton whole again. From her attire – including a leotard and fishnets – to her musical backdrop – such as a slowed-down version of Beyoncé’s Crazy in Love – she certainly brought the glamour.' - Play & Go
Ages: 9+ to Adults
