Zauberteam

Lerne die vier Schüler des College of Magic kennen, ihre Lieblingskunststücke, Reiseabenteuer in Österreich und die Menschen, die sie begleiten.

An empty, dimly lit Austrian theater stage in photographic realism, with a rich burgundy curtain half-open revealing a polished wooden floor dusted with a subtle haze. At center stage stands a single small black table draped in deep blue velvet, holding a deck of cards, a gleaming metal ring, and a neatly folded silk scarf. Golden stage spotlights from above create dramatic pools of light and long shadows, while rows of empty red velvet seats blur softly in the background. Shot from the back of the auditorium at a slightly elevated angle, the mood is full of anticipation and wonder, capturing the feel of an upcoming magic show on tour.
A cozy Austrian train compartment in photographic realism, its patterned seats and wooden details clearly visible, with the outside world of rolling green hills and distant mountains streaked in motion through the window. On the small fold-out table lie an open map of Austria, a stack of multilingual cue cards labeled in subtle color blocks for DE, EN, AF and XH, a well-used magic wand, and a small notebook filled with tiny drawn symbols instead of words. Warm overhead lighting mixes with cool daylight from the window, creating a lively, on-the-road atmosphere. Shot from a seated passenger’s perspective, the scene feels candid, playful and full of travel excitement.

Magic of Africa Reise

Vier junge Magier verlassen Kapstadt, tauschen Tafelberg gegen Alpenluft und bringen mit der Magic of Africa Tour südafrikanische Zauberkunst, Musik und Geschichten auf Bühnen in Bad Aussee, Fieberbrunn, Dornbirn und Wien.

Unsere Magier

An atmospheric backstage corner of an Austrian venue in photographic realism, showing a slightly scuffed black road case open on the floor with neatly arranged magic props inside: nested metal rings, colorful silk streamers, a polished wooden wand, and a small mechanical box. Nearby, a mirror-lined makeup table reflects only props: a top hat on the counter, a fan of cards, a folded stage program without visible text. Overhead, warm tungsten bulbs cast a golden glow, creating rich highlights on metallic surfaces and gentle shadows in the corners. Shot from a low angle with the open case in the foreground, the mood is intimate, behind-the-scenes and full of pre-show energy.

Lethu aus Kapstadt mischt klassische Kartenkunst mit südafrikanischem Storytelling und verzaubert Kinder wie Erwachsene auf der Tour.

A scenic lakeside view in Bad Aussee captured in photographic realism, with a glossy black magician’s suitcase propped on a rustic wooden bench facing a calm alpine lake. Snow-dusted mountains rise in the distance, reflected in the glassy water. From the slightly open suitcase, colorful silk scarves, a magic wand, and a small crystal ball peek out, hinting at a show to come. Soft morning light bathes the scene in a cool, fresh glow, creating gentle highlights on the suitcase clasps. Shot at eye level with the suitcase in the foreground and the lake and peaks softly blurred, the mood is playful and adventurous, blending travel and magic.

Amirah, geboren in Mitchells Plain, liebt bunte Illusionen, schnelle Kostümwechsel und bringt afrikanischen Glanz auf Österreichs Bühnen.

A close-up, photographic portrait-style image of four distinct magician’s hats arranged in a gentle curve on a simple dark-gray studio backdrop, each hat with unique personality details to suggest four different performers without showing people. One hat is classic black with a satin band, another navy with subtle silver stars, a third deep burgundy felt, and a fourth charcoal with a slightly curved brim. Beside each hat lies a different prop: a coin, a card fan, a silk scarf, and a small rope loop. Soft studio lighting from the side creates delicate shadows and highlights textures. Shot at eye level with shallow depth of field, the atmosphere is playful, modern and characterful.

Thabo aus Gugulethu kombiniert geschickte Fingerfertigkeit mit Comedy-Momenten und macht jede Show spontaner, lauter und ein bisschen verrückter.

Auf der „Magic of Africa Tour“ stehen vier junge Talente aus Kapstadt auf der Bühne:

• **Lungi Mbeki (17, Khayelitsha)** – Spezialist für schnelle Kartenkunst und Street Magic. Lungi liebt es, direkt im Publikum zu zaubern und zeigt, dass große Magie auch aus einfachen Alltagsgegenständen entstehen kann.

• **Daniel Jacobs (16, Rondebosch)** – unser Technik- und Mentalmagier. Mit Gedankenlesen, Vorhersagen und cleveren Requisiten verbindet Daniel moderne Illusionen mit klassischer Bühnenmagie.

• **Aisha Abrahams (18, Wynberg)** – sie kombiniert elegante Bühnenzauberei mit Tanz und Musik aus Südafrika. Aisha gestaltet viele der Routinen selbst und ist dafür zuständig, dass Kostüme und Requisiten immer glänzen.

• **Sipho Dlamini (17, Mitchells Plain)** – Comedy-Magier und Zauber-Moderator der Show. Sipho sorgt für Lachen zwischen den Tricks, spricht Englisch, Afrikaans und isiXhosa auf der Bühne und baut so Brücken zwischen dem Publikum in Österreich und zu Hause in Kapstadt.

Alle vier sind Schüler*innen des **College of Magic** in Kapstadt und bringen ihre ganz persönliche Geschichte, ihre Sprachen und ihren eigenen Stil mit – gemeinsam zeigen sie, wie magisch kultureller Austausch sein kann.
