Suits, smiles, and side-splitting antics! Are you ready for the grand trifecta of magic, music, and comedy? This year at the Edinburgh Fringe, the world-renowned Lewis Fuller takes the stage to deliver a mesmerizing show that will leave you breathless, humming, and possibly questioning your life choices. It promises to be the kind of evening that leaves your cheeks aching, not from exercise, but from laughter. Don’t miss out on the spectacle sure to ignite cocktail party conversations for years to come!
Lewis Fuller is an award-winning magician, TV star, and former semi-finalist from Britain’s Got Talent. In what can only be described as the ultimate career move, he has branded himself the world’s first Singing Illusionist. So, if you’ve ever fantasized about crooning while pulling rabbits out of hats, this is the man for you! Lewis has entertained celebrities, royalty, and even your Aunt Edna with his unique blend of magic, cheeky charm, and just the right amount of dad jokes.
Making his debut at Ed Fringe this year with the thrilling show titled Ungentlemanly Conduct—yes, it’s about as gentlemanly as a cat in a room full of laser pointers—Lewis promises Vegas-style glamour and a whirlwind of big show energy. Expect vocal performances that may leave you questioning if you’ve accidentally wandered into a musical, coupled with sleight-of-hand tricks that are likely safer than trusting your phone with your toddler. And let’s not forget the “daring” stunts that may or may not involve dangerous illusions and record-breaking escapes that even Houdini would be impressed by. Sorry, Houdini, there’s a new kid in town!
Picture this: woven throughout his performance is a thrilling rags-to-riches tale. Lewis, your average Joe, dreams of debuting his show at Ed Fringe but lacks the funds—a classic tale as old as time. Determined to make his dream a reality, he gets his hands dirty through a mishmash of poker games and side hustles that involve a little black book and a lot of questionable decisions. Witness the twists, turns, and possibly dramatic reenactments as he navigates the perilous world of back-alley gambling. Spoiler alert: his credit score may never recover!
Lewis himself excitedly proclaims: “I’m thrilled to make my debut at Edinburgh Fringe! The festival is overflowing with talent and such positive vibes—like a hall full of positivity and overpriced H2O. Ungentlemanly Conduct is a piece of me. It reflects my total creative freedom, and let me tell you, I’ve poured my heart, soul, and perhaps a tear or two into making it truly extraordinary. And yes, my therapist approves!”
Praise for Lewis Fuller flows in like a generous tip: “You’re a very funny young chap, you know!” – HRH King Charles (who I assume has seen his fair share of entertainment). “This is a very Vegas show” – Simon Cowell (who clearly knows more about grandiosity than anyone else). “Lewis is a breath of fresh air… I’ve never seen anything like it. Absolutely incredible!” – Jonathan Ross (definitely a fan of the dramatic). So yes, according to important people, this show is the bee’s knees. Or at least the cat’s pajamas.
Venue: The Gilded Balloon (Doonstairs), Patter House, 3 Chambers St, EH1 1HT. When? From July 31 to August 25, 2024, with an exciting break on the 12th (because even illusions need a day off) at 8:30 PM. Tickets? THEY’RE JUST A CLICK AWAY HERE—because what’s better than a night of magic that doesn’t strain the budget? Well, maybe a night with free snacks, but we can’t have everything, can we?
