Claire Voyant: Please Don't Eat The Props (Work in Progress)

Copy event details

Funny, silly and mildly magical — local performer Olivia Post launches her new comedy character, Clair Voyant.

A comedy magic show featuring clairvoyance, questionable foresight, and at least one object that is more important than it appears. Some predictions come true. Some are edible. None are explained.

Based in Battle (and occasionally venturing beyond the 1066 postcode), A regular performer with the Stables Improv Team (SIT), Olivia has been bothering audiences with offbeat comedy and deeply questionable predictions for longer than strictly necessary.

Warning: May contain nuts. Definitely contains silliness.

Content warning: Mild peril, improbable magic, and baked goods.

Age Restrictions:
16+

We really thoroughly enjoyed the show. We loved the humour, loved the accordion and the balloon model was the icing on the cake. Thank you, well done and good luck xx

I saw Claire Voyant: Please Don’t Eat The Props (Work in Progress) in Hastings on Wednesday night and it was an absolute joy from start to finish. Olivia Post was brilliant. Performing to a packed room, she had the audience in the palm of her hand throughout. The concept is wonderfully inventive: we’re transported back to 19th century France to uncover how Claire Voyant ends up being murdered, with the audience helping decide her fate along the way. Being able to vote on how the story unfolds was such a fun touch and made the whole experience feel genuinely unique. The show is packed with laughs, but what really caught me off guard were the magic tricks. They were clever, unexpected and woven seamlessly into the performance. It’s a fantastic variety show that combines comedy, storytelling, magic and audience participation in a way that feels fresh and original. You’re not just watching the show, you’re part of it. Most importantly, it properly made my night. I left with a huge grin on my face. It’s rare to come across a show that feels this original, playful and interactive. Olivia has created something that pushes the envelope and offers a genuinely different experience from a typical comedy or theatre show. If you’re looking for magic, laughter and a wonderfully joyous character to take you on a jolly jaunt through time, I’d thoroughly recommend it.

Loved the show. Didn't understand why conjuring was in the narrative, although it worked! Great first WIP
