Playing @
SoHo Playhouse
15 Vandam Street, New York City, NY 10013
Alleged former conman, Simon Lovell, presents a one man show of his most unusual life.

It’s a joyous romp through the world of the con including weird antics designed to irritate airport security, the musical mice, some great card tricks and cheating moves, and so much more. He even teaches the audience at least four ways to cheat their friends so that they can win their ticket money back!

This ‘charming’ Brit has been described as having, “The hands of a god, the voice of an angel, and the heart of a sewer rat!” Described by the Wall Street Journal as ‘A Dazzling 70 Minute Show’ this eccentric Brit will take you on a roller coaster ride into the dark and seedy world of white collar crime and have you laughing all the way.
Just hold onto your wallets tightly. A con man so lovable you won’t want to press charges!

Reviews

  • Simon’s show has received great reviews in the New York press (not an easy thing to get) and you can see why. This is a complex man at ease with himself and what he does. He says he does it for himself but if the audience digs it then that’s fine, if not that’s fine also. Well I would say they do dig it and both the show and my new friend Simon are great adverts for the art of magic.
