You Married A Witch!

World champion prize-winner and Australian magician Calista Sinclair brings her signature mix of magic and theatre. Using illusion to tell the truth about being a female human in this world; will she be burnt at the stake or simply sawn in half?

Calista will be bringing a brand new 45 minute full stage show to this year’s Melbourne Magic Festival.

Calista Sinclair is a multidisciplinary artist—magician, dancer, and performer—whose work redefines the boundaries of illusion. Originally from Australia, she began her artistic career as a contemporary dancer and graduated with honors in Performance Studies from the University of Sydney. A founding member of the DirtyFeet dance collective, she honed her stagecraft through her interactions with avant-garde choreographers and a deep immersion in contemporary Aboriginal dance with Vicki Van Hout. These formative experiences inform her unique vision of magic: an art of movement, symbolism, and embodied storytelling.

She now develops her own solo creations:

2018: How to become a magician in less than 57 minutes , show for young audiences (Gaîté Montparnasse).
2024: Magician, in turn , an autofiction show exploring the place of women in magic. This project benefited from a residency at the Magic WIP in La Villette
