Get ready for a hilarious and fast-paced interactive family show.

Prepare to be spellbound as objects materialise, vanish, and morph right before your very eyes in a series of mind-boggling magic moments that frequently involve the entire audience.

Word on the street is that Mada will be scouting for a young apprentice from the audience to assist him with a jaw-dropping illusion on stage. Plus, Adam, a father of three, will lead a special interactive magical tribute dedicated to all the dads in the audience.

Are you ready to become a part of the magic?


For Presenters

Mada’s Magic Marvels is an interactive magic show crafted specifically for families with primary school-age children. The show features original inventions and illusions along with traditional sleight of hand with contemporary storytelling. Offering fun and lighthearted entertainment celebrating the spirit of invention and imagination.

In this show, participation is key, as the performance seamlessly integrates genuine interactive elements, engaging audiences both in their seats and on stage. It’s not just a performance; it’s an invitation to become a part of the magic, making the show an ideal first theatre experience for a diverse audience.

The show is extremely easy to set up and stage while providing big visual appeal.  It can be bumped-in under 1.5 hours, is primarily self operated and requires only one AV operator during the performance. We are proud to have developed the show with a small footprint in terms of staffing and management.

Mada’s Magic Marvels is very popular with audiences with the majority of seasons to-date selling out.  Presenters can leverage Adam’s profile as a magician and his work on major productions to bolster marketing campaigns.



Mada’s Magic Marvels is the culmination of Adam’s touring performances across the globe. In 2016 it embarked on a funded tour through India, gracing prestigious venues such as the TATA NCPA theatre and The Royal Bombay Yacht Club, courtesy of the Australian High Commission. The show has also been featured on Royal Caribbean and Celebrity Cruise lines and has been a highlight at numerous children’s festivals.

Mada’s Magic Marvel’s was a fabulous addition to our Spot On Children’s festival program. Popular with both children and their grown ups, Adam’s showmanship delighted the audience and the interactive style of the show meant squeals and shouts of excitement and joy were bleeding out of the venue doors. A fantastic school holiday or family show’
