STAGE TUBE: Audiences React to Benedict Barber's MASTER OF THE MACABRE at The Vaults
The Vaults plays host this autumn to MASTER OF THE MACABRE with newly discovered magical talent Benedict Barber bringing his story to the stage -- in a script developed by Barber and Matthew Stradling. Directed by Tony Middleton, the production opened on 13 October and runs past Hallowe'en to 1 November. Click below to hear what audiences think of the show so far!
Benedict Barber is a magician with a taste for the ghoulish and grisly. In MASTER OF THE MACABRE, he will take the audience on a dark autobiographical journey -- from his introduction to magic at the age of just five through the trickery he employed at school to alarm his fellow pupils and terrorize his teachers to a shocking experience as a young adult that has shaped his life both on and off the stage.
This fully immersive theatrical experience will leave you wide-eyed with astonishment and bring you to the edge of your seat with fear. If you're prepared to have your prejudices challenged, your assumptions questioned, your beliefs shaken and your nerves shredded then this is the show for you. MASTER OF THE MACABRE is -- quite simply -- the most terrifying magic show you will ever see...Performances play The Vaults Theatre - Entrance on Launcelot Street, London SE1 7AD.
