The performer

About Ben Daggers

Ben Daggers is a close-up magician, writer and experience designer based in Osaka. Studio Escape, which he created, presents him in The Peacock Room every Friday for an intimate audience of no more than seven people, followed by additional bar magic. The official venue page also notes his 2023 Japan Magician of the Year recognition. This supports an active Osaka profile and a public ticket route, but it does not explicitly advertise outside private or corporate bookings, so accepts-gigs remains unknown.
