House of Magic #5
Fortune and Glory
19 & 20 September
Four rooms. Four magicians. One shared pursuit.
What are you willing to risk for truth? For greatness? For something to believe in?
House of Magic: Fortune and Glory is an immersive journey across four stages, four stories, and four minds chasing meaning through mystery. Guided by a TenClub host, you and your fellow seekers will drift from room to room, spell to spell, illusion to revelation.
Each magician swears it isn’t real. That might be the most truthful thing you’ll hear all night.
Let’s take a closer look at the stories you’ll step into.
Four rooms. Four minds. Each with their own version of truth, illusion, and the thrill of the
unknown.
Ondřej Pšenička (Prague) – MONSTER
You think you know how card magic works.
He thinks that’s cute.
Ondřej brings clarity and chaos in equal measure. With charm, precision, and a flicker of fire,
he revives the forgotten art of fortune telling, and turns it on its head.
One moment you’re laughing. The next, you’re questioning everything.
Sometimes the best way to tell the future… is to write it yourself.
Will Coile (Los Angeles) – CLUB
A performance in the dark. Literally.
Will doesn’t perform for the spotlight, he builds his own shadow. In a room where light barely reaches and sound leads the way, he creates moments that feel like memory, instinct, or a half-
remembered dream. Strange. Cinematic. Entirely his own.
You won’t see everything.
You’re not supposed to.
Jack Mcquinn (Almere Muziekwijk) – MEDITATION
He just landed. The dust is still on his boots. His suitcase is still at customs.
Jack Mcquinn is an archaeologist. A relic hunter.
From Timbuktu to the depths of the Amazon -and one layover in Almere Muziekwijk- he’s
travelled the globe in search of whispered legends and forbidden manuscripts.
Tonight, for the first time, he unpacks his findings live.
Cursed boxes will be opened. Relics revealed. Some may whisper. One might hum.
No manuals. No museum approval. Just you, him, and the pursuit of Fortune and Glory.
Tim de Vos (Amsterdam) – BRASSERIE
Three acts. Two are real stunts. One is not.
All demand your full attention.
This is not a gamble. It’s a discipline.
Tim’s performance is a study in risk, control, and commitment, where illusion and truth stand
side by side and dare you to tell the difference.
Real or not, your heartbeat won’t know the difference.
Some stories don’t need stages. Just a glass, a glance, and someone whispering, “Did you see that?”
Support act: Illusionist Soumya (India) – WHISPER BAR
In the quietest room of the house, while drinks are poured and voices drop, Soumya deals in quiet fortunes.
His magic doesn’t demand your attention, it invites it, gently, and then vanishes before you’re sure it happened.
Order something strong. Stay a while.
