Christian Cagigal's Obscura

Join magician Christian Cagigal as he weaves magic, fairy tales and dark fables into an intimate and engaging evening fraught with wonder, mystery and imagination. Cagigal has been regaling diverse audiences with his unique hybrid of theatre and "slightly creepy" magic at the EXIT Theatre, where he is currently an Artist in Residence. Cagigal has been hailed as one of San Francisco's most original independent performers, producing "intimate spectacle" that has charmed and bewildered audiences since 2006. Now he brings his magic to NOHspace for a strictly limited run of just three performances!

Cagigal's shows include The 13 Steps, The Pandora Experiment (a resident favorite that played to full houses in 2007 and 2008), and his critically acclaimed Now and at the Hour which is currently being made into a documentary performance film by internationally known writer/director/composer H.P. Mendoza (Colma The Musical, Fruitfly)

With Obscura, Cagigal returns to his roots as an up-close and personal magician and entertainer, peppering some of his favorite short stories with witty, eccentric card demonstrations. Obscura is the live component of Cagigal's new Web series of the same name, directed and co-produced by H.P.
