Top Secret-Magic of Science is produced by two award winning illusionists Danny Hunt and Stephanie Clarke. As quoted from their website it is a ‘fast moving colourful magical science show filled with mystery, suspense, lots and lots of mess!’ And I couldn’t agree more!!
The show is held at various locations across the UK throughout the year. They have released their 2025 dates which I will share further down.

Me and Kam (my 8 year old) went to watch this show on an afternoon at our closest venue, The Witham in Barnard Castle. They are currently touring the UK with this show and have a few dates left for the summer holidays which will be at Viva Blackpool on the 25th August and 1st September 2024.https://www.vivablackpool.com/event/top-secret-the-magic-of-science/
So here’s what we thought…
To summarise WE LOVED IT.
There are so many exciting ‘wow’ moments getting you thinking ‘how did they do that?!’ It is jam packed full of magic and science experiments in the 80 minutes of this show!!
There is a 20 minute interval for refreshments, or to purchase any gifts too which broke it up nicely. They had a good selection of science experiments and magic kits at reasonable prices too! (we were kindly gifted some as part of our collaboration)
I thoroughly enjoyed all of the show and wasn’t bored once. I was VERY impressed with the helium balloon trick though, this really had me gobsmacked. I won’t spoil it by saying too much but I’m still trying to work this one out!
Kam said he really enjoyed all of it and couldn’t pick his favourite part! It’s the first show he has said he would watch all over again. He was smiling and watching with concentration throughout, so I could tell he was loving it 😊
Danny and Steph were both brilliant at involving the audience during the show too. They were really getting people interacting and making it a good laugh so that everyone felt relaxed and wanting to join in.
The humour throughout was great! Danny’s jokes worked well for both kids and adults to understand, making it a great family show all round. Steph was fantastic at talking through science and how things work but in a fun and interesting way. I also loved how every child/adult that they picked to be involved in the show got a science gift to take home too, and a good amount got this opportunity!
It was also really thoughtful how they showed the audience how to do a few tricks at home too (both experiments and magic!) This got the kids attention and they were really intrigued. It was explained how to do it at home in a safe way too so bonus points for that!
This show really did have the best combination of magic, science and humour all rolled into one! It was such a vibrant and exciting combination of chemical reactions, gravity tricks, illusions, fire tricks and so much more!!
We had a the BEST time and left feeling in such a happy and excited mood. There were lots of humour from Danny and interesting and fun science facts from Steph. Such a great team of entertainers!!
If you manage to catch them on tour I would definitely recommend this for a family show that you can all chat about after and try some of the tricks (safely of course) at home.. there will be lots of questions and excited conversations I’m sure!!
If you don’t manage to catch them this year, I definitely recommend trying to book this for next your for a family fun awesome experience to look forward to, you won’t be disappointed!
Here’s their tour dates for the remainder of 2024 as well as 2025, which can be booked directly with the venues holding the show. Just search them on socials or on google for their website.
