EXCLUSIVE: Magical Bones of the Impossible Show Has a Message for Harry Potter

"I'll probably teach him [Harry Potter] a trick where he has to dance. So, I'll make him do a little...get his wand, do some breakdancing moves, as in make the wand levitate around his body. That's what I'd teach him," said Richard Essien, popularly known by his stage name Magical Bones. 

Hailing from Catford, Magical Bones is known for his signature backflip, usually while doing card tricks. He used to be back-up dancer for Madonna and The Black Eyed Peas. He is considered the world's best hip-hop magician. He also recalled that the first trick he learned was how to make a coin vanish. He is in Manila now for the world tour of IMPOSSIBLE.

Featuring six of the world's most mind-blowing magical acts, IMPOSSIBLE is a breathtaking spectacle thrilling audiences worldwide. Fresh from its record-breaking second summer in London's West End, IMPOSSIBLE continues to tour the world and finally comes to Manila for the holiday season this December 25 to January 3.

Fusing death-defying stunts, technological trickery, grand stage illusions and close-up magic in a fast-paced breathtaking performance, IMPOSSIBLE reinvents the biggest illusions in history in the greatest magic show on earth.

Aside from Magical Bones, the show includes All Cook, a daring escapologist, sleight of hand expert, stage illusionist and performer of thought control; Chris Cox, who stars in BBC3's Killer Magic, bewildering audiences with his unique mind reading talent; Ben Hart, inventor of unique magic which pushes the boundaries of film, theatre and television and tests the limits of illusion, including decapitation, vanishing, and levitation; Josephine Lee, who broke the world record for the most number of illusions performed in 5 minutes with the world-renowned Hans Klok - an accolade held to this day; and Bello Nock, who uniquely fuses endearing comedy and jaw-dropping daredevil stunts.
