Laura London

Laura London began in magic at age eight and, one week after her eighteenth birthday, became the youngest female member of The Magic Circle. She is now its first elected female Chair and a Member of the Inner Magic Circle with Gold Star, the highest honour within the club.

Her one-woman show Laura London: CHEAT, which she wrote and devised, tells the story of a 1920s cardsharp who made her living cheating at poker; it drew four-star reviews at the Edinburgh Fringe 2016, played the Wellcome Collection, toured Europe and reached the world-famous Magic Castle in Hollywood. Around the dinner table or at receptions she performs close-up sleight of hand and card-cheating demonstrations for up to 20 guests at a time, and suits dinners, parties, premieres and trade shows.
