Magdalena

Step right up for a fortune-telling experience that's barely accurate, but definitely unforgettable.

Magdalena, the "fortune teller", combines a crystal ball, questionable predictions and a healthy dose of dark humour in a show that's as absurd as it is entertaining.

Described by the 'Scotsman' (top newspaper in the UK) as 'unexpected, clever, ridiculous but great stuff, crystal ball and all', this interactive comedy has left audiences worldwide laughing and wondering what just happened.

Some say it's life-changing, others call it pure nonsense-but no one escapes without a few laughs, some spirit summoning and answers you probably didn't want.

‍ ‍Magdalena will tell you the future, summon the spirits, open your mind and send you home less of a loser.

Described by many as a kind of show they have never seen before, and proclaimed by participants as a life changing experience, Magdalena the fortune teller is here to transform you from a zero to a hero.

"Absurd, original, dark and joyous.

This is one of those hidden gems of the fringe you really have to catch!

... Magdalena and her crystal ball managed to marry absurdist, creative comedy with real life questions from the audience, finding answers to our genuine life decisions and dilemmas. By the end of the show Magdalena had us all hooked. The chemistry between Magdalena and the crystal ball (aka Ori Halevy) was electric and infectious.

Does Magdalena really have magic powers? 100%! Should you see this show? Absolutely!"
