Magician Paul Dabek will present a one-man show in Chester next week, after wowing audiences on the world famous Las Vegas strip.

During his time out in the entertainment capital Paul also performed with the legendary magic duo Penn & Teller at a private party for Las Vegas entrepreneur Tony Hshai.

Having returned to the UK, Paul will perform his acclaimed one man show in an evening of magic and comedy at Telford’s Warehouse on Tuesday February 18.

He said: “Performing in Las Vegas has been a lifelong dream for me and I am now looking forward to the possibility of more work out there in the near future.”

Paul, 27 has been a professional magician, comedian and actor for the ten years, and played Lucifer in the 2008 cycle of Chester Mystery Plays. He has also toured with Chester company Theatre in the Quarter.

Paul added: “2014 has already been a busy time for me and there are no signs of it slowing down for the remainder of the year. Before I returned from Las Vegas I flew to Durban, South Africa to perform on the world famous Queen Mary 2 cruise ship which I regularly fly out to do.”

At the end of this month Paul will fly to Australia to perform a two-week run of his one-man show Stand Up and Be Conjured at the Adelaide Fringe Festival.  Later this year he has been booked to take the same show to Montreal for the Just for Laughs Festival as well as to his fifth Edinburgh Fringe Festival in August.

He said: “It's beginning to look like I will be on the road, high seas or in the air for much of this year so I wanted to take this opportunity to squeeze in a performance back home.

“Many people have been asking when I would bring my show back to Chester and so this is a chance to share my magic with fans in the city that helped me establish myself as a headline performer.”

Tickets for Paul’s show at  Telford’s Warehouse on February 18 are £5 on the door.
