The story so far...

I'm trying to book this guy, but it's proving hard to nail down his assistant. 

As you can see we've started a little blog so anything that comes up we can jot down here.

Just to bring you up to speed, here is a re-cap of the information as published on Magic Week over the last two weeks:


Magic Week 3rd October

Opus Magazine, which ran from 1987 - 2005, not only filled an eclectic gap in magic publishing, they also ran some of the coolest conventions and lectures for their subscribers. It's great news therefore to hear that they are firing up the machine again for what sounds like a very interesting day come December 13th this year in London.

Chris Power, one of the original Opus gang says 'With the International Magic Weekend (Ron's Day) taking a small break till 2016, it seemed like an ideal opportunity to have something going on in London for magic friends old and new. It's been really touching that when going through our 'little black book' looking for people to take part, every single one has been so positive in helping out to make this a great day'

With the likes of Guy Hollingworth, Richard McDougall, Gordon Bruce, Peter Lamont and David Williamson already being mooted, it sounds as though 13th of December is a date to put in your diary. Chris says further details will follow and the venue has just been confirmed this morning.


Magic Week 10th October


Opus Reunion: London, December 13th. Opus Magazine's Chris Power has been in touch with more information about the Opus Reunion event on December 13th: "Last week I'd just signed off on the venue and the response to the initial press release has been fantastic. I thought it would be good to let everyone know just a little more detail. The venue is Truckles of Pied Bull Yard, London WC1. This is stone's throw away from the British Museum; very central. We're aiming to kick-off at around 11 and will be gathering from 10. It's very close to Holborn Tube Station which is served by both Central and Piccadilly lines." 

Tickets for the day are strictly limited and are on a first come, first served basis. The cost is £50 until November 15th and, if any space is left, £75 thereafter. Payment can be sent via PayPal to: opusreunion2015@gmail.com


If you have any questions you can get hold of Chris via the above email address. The prospective line-up looks great with Guy Hollingworth, Richard McDougall, Gordon Bruce, Peter Lamont and David Williamson all on the starting line and with more names to come. 10.10.15

  • As of today, we're starting work on the shape the day will take and chatting to each performer. The response has been great and we have already reached a third of our target. So if you have any friends who may be interested, tell them about it now to avoid disappointment. More soon, Chris
