Hosted by acclaimed magician to the stars, Deceptionist, who has been described as the best manipulator of cards ever seen, budding sorcerer’s apprentices will have the chance to learn some of magic’s best kept secrets and enjoy a mystifying magical display.  After the show guests can disappear into thin air or stay to enjoy more cocktails and conjuring in warm and convivial surroundings.

Barts is a quirky ‘speak easy’ style bar on prestigious Sloane Avenue in the heart of Chelsea.  It was voted the 21st best bar in the UK in the Independent newspaper’s recent Best 50 Bars supplement.
