MagicSafe: Conjuror vs Corporate

What happens when a working-class magician tries to survive the absurd world of corporate red tape? Liam "LJ" Jumpertz returns to the Melbourne International Comedy Festival with MagicSafe: Conjuror vs Corporate — a high-chaos, high-laugh magic seminar where workplace safety meets a magician and neither survives intact. Fresh off winning the Magician's Choice Award two years running (2024 and 2025), LJ steps back into the role of an overworked, under-supported MagicSafe trainer, tasked with enforcing the government's brand-new WorkSafe x MagicSafe initiative: Performing Magic The MagicSafe Way. Expect hi-vis vests for doves, PPE for rabbits, Safe Work Method Statements for every trick, and daily wand inspections nobody asked for. But LJ's biggest hazard isn't faulty props or dangerous illusions. It's Todd from Corporate. Clipboard in hand and armed with policy updates, Todd has been sent from head office to monitor the seminar, and systematically derail it. With constant interruptions, contradictory rules and surprise compliance checks, Todd is determined to prove magic should be left to qualified corporate professionals. Blending sharp corporate satire, award-winning magic and quick-fire improv, MagicSafe: Conjuror vs Corporate is perfect for comedy fans, magic lovers and anyone who's ever thought, this could've been an email. Clock in and prepare for a safety seminar that fails every safety standard imaginable.
