Daniel Cremin to Bring WHY MAGIC? To The Everyman This August

Direct from the National Theatre of Iceland, Daniel Cremin will bring his one-man play WHY MAGIC? home to The Everyman, Cork on the 28th of August 2025 for one night only.

Following the success of IT'S ALL AN ACT! Daniel Cremin's new magic play WHY MAGIC? is a spellbinding tale of self-discovery filled with astonishing interactive and visual magic.

Based on experiences from Daniel's own life, WHY MAGIC? tells the fictional story of a young boy who always struggled to fit in. One evening after witnessing magician Paul Daniels on television, everything changes. He discovers the world of magic, a world that gives him a form of confidence that nothing else ever did. But how does he navigate this world? And how can he manifest his dream into a reality?

Having received the award for Best Storytelling at Reykjavík Fringe Festival 2025, WHY MAGIC? blends theatre and magic into an unforgettable play of passion and determination, coupled with jaw-dropping visual and psychological magic that will leave you in utter disbelief.

Daniel Cremin is renowned for his innovative approach to theatre and magic, blending the two seamlessly into a symphony of storytelling with magical crescendos throughout. His previous works, including MYSTERY OF THE MIND, TRICKS OF THE TRADE, and IT'S ALL AN ACT! have garnered acclaim for their originality and emotional depth. Described by audiences as heartfelt and comedic and vulnerable, powerful, and full of wonder, WHY MAGIC? comes to The Everyman, Cork on the 28th of August, 2025.
