This unique show is the result of the pairing of legendary magician Penn Jillette, of world-renowned duo Penn & Teller, (who will tour the UK for the first time without his 50-year companion Teller) teaming up with comedy-magician phenomenon Piff the Magic Dragon, star and fan-favourite from America’s Got Talent. These shows will also be London born Piff The Magic Dragon’s (John van der Put) first UK shows in over a decade since he moved from his birthplace in Forest Hill southeast London to Las Vegas. Their brand-new show, Piff & Pop’s Magic Shoppe, promises a night of jaw-dropping magic, side-splitting comedy, and unforgettable showmanship. Split in two halves, Act one will feature a solo act from both Pop (Penn Jillette) and Piff The Magic Dragon along with Mr Piffles – the world’s only magic-performing Chihuahua. Each will take to the stage to showcase their signature styles of magic, wit and wonder from Penn’s sharp storytelling and world-class sleight of hand to Piff’s eccentric comedy and offbeat illusions. Act two will see the pair return to the stage as a duo, blending their unique talents into a one-of-a-kind double act. Expect the unexpected as the ‘Dragons’ combine forces into a larger-than-life finale.

It's Not Where You Start By Scott Kyle

It's Not Where You Start By Scott Kyle

Based on the award-winning bestselling memoir of the same name, the It’s Not Where You Start live show is a powerful, uplifting, and deeply personal storytelling experience that blends theatre, autobiography, and live performance with projected animation and film. It tells the extraordinary true story of award-winning actor Scott Kyle’s journey from foster care to foster carer, from Glasgow’s back streets to award-winning stages and Hollywood film sets — including the rise, fall, and return of Singin’ I’m No a Billy, He’s a Tim, and the moment Scott almost turned down the chance to work with Harrison Ford. At its heart, It’s Not Where You Start explores resilience, identity, second chances, and the courage it takes to begin again — all delivered with warmth, humour, and emotional honesty. The show has proven particularly effective with venues that engage with community groups, care-experienced audiences, and those interested in real-life storytelling, theatre, and film. - “If it’s only one memoir of second chances you read/see/listen to this year, I highly recommend It’s Not Where You Start.” - Louise Cannon - Bookmarks and Stages - “An amazing story and well worth your time, superb animations.” – Nicola McCartney, award-winning playwright & director - “A really well-told TED Talk with beautiful animations… such an engaging, humble, and honest performer.” — Cora Bissett
