Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Last night’s performance at the Artscape Theatre was a thoroughly enjoyable experience, as ever — no two performances are alike, and I think you can pretty much guarantee that you’ll always have a blast, regardless of the lineup or venue.
I must give a shout-out to the organisers that took a venue shuffle in stride and personally called ticket holders to explain the situation and give directions. Fantastic customer service, thank you.
If you enjoy mentalism, sleight-of-hand and good-natured banter, don’t pass up an opportunity to catch a show.

I’ve attended two Magic Club performances in Cape Town – both imminently entertaining but different. The October 2017 show featured two impressive young magicians and a seasoned magician / mentalist, Larry Soffer. All the magicians required heavy audience participation and must say I’m impressed with the audience follow-up – maybe a bit too much for me. Everything is highly organized. I travel to the Western Cape frequently and am a solo woman traveler. At both Magic Shows I’ve met new interesting local people and have found the shows totally comfortable for a solo traveler. It’s a great way to spend your Monday evening!

I saw this pop up on my feed and thought it was an amazing idea for my hubby and I to do. Monday nights are always so boring and we often retire to our house and watch series due to us having to recover from a hectic Monday. Not this time, we decided to join the Cape Town Magic Club in one of the most amazing venues I have ever been to. It really is a great idea to hold a Magic Show in an old BANK VOLT. it really sets the mood of mystery and the unexplained. The performers were fantastic with their tricks and know just how to use the whole audience. I would recommend this show to anyone.

There is no way you won't enjoy yourself! There is no reason not to go! Are you allergic to fun? If not, then Monday Night Magic is perfect for you! Be a kid again! Forget that everything has to make sense, or be explained... just lean forward, and be enchanted!

Founder and Producer Marcel Oudejans has taken Monday Night Magic to the next level! The magical pop-up theatre has been recreated and reimagined in the old underground bank vault adjoining the magnificent Taj Hotel.
Season 5 opened last night to much acclaim. This is not children's birthday party magic, but sophisticated and slick close up magicians, the best in SA, plus some international acts whenever possible. A great night's entertainment. Support local magic! You'll be amazed!

Great performers and an amazing show and the atmosphere of the venue is perfect for magic. Took my 14 year old son to the 7pm show and he was amazed. Definitely recommend the show and will visit again.
