Andrew Frost: The Greatest Card Magician In The World

Brighton's Komedia Studio is set to host a show next month that comes with a title that’s hard to ignore: Andrew Frost: The Greatest Card Magician In The World. Andrew Frost is bringing his acclaimed performance, which blends an innovative mix of contemporary magic, comedy, and theatre, to 44-47 Gardner Street on Wednesday, March 18, 2026. The show is scheduled to start at 8:00 PM, with doors opening half an hour earlier at 7:30 PM. This performance is part of a UK tour following a highly successful run at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, where the show first gained significant traction.

The core of the show revolves around that ambitious claim, inviting the audience to come and discover if Andrew Frost truly lives up to the title of the world's greatest card magician. The context surrounding the artist certainly suggests he’s operating at a high level; he has received strong endorsements from some of the biggest names in the field. Derren Brown has called him 'A brilliant magician,' while David Blaine described his work as 'A phenomenon.' Even comedian Nick Mohammed weighed in, calling Frost 'One of the most phenomenal card magicians in the world.' The production, originally by Alice Gorman and presented by Plosive Live, utilizes the intimate setting of the Studio space with unreserved seating, keeping the focus squarely on the close-up nature of the magic and the theatrical elements.

If you are planning to attend, there are a few practical details to keep in mind. The show is intended for ages 14 and up, and anyone under 16 must be accompanied by an adult. The venue advises that the performance may contain adult themes or explicit content, so parental discretion is necessary for younger attendees. This is a ticketed event, and while the exact price for the Komedia Brighton date hasn't been specified in the general tour information, tickets for other stops on the tour have been listed around the £12 to £18 mark. If you are looking for a night out that combines high-level sleight of hand with a strong comedic and theatrical approach, this mid-week event in March might be one to check out.
