Josh Staley: Wild Card
Comedian, magician, & showman Josh Staley returns after his recent success at the "Magic Olympics”, award-winning, sold-out shows across the world & being crowned 'Australian champion of magic'
Wild Card is a high-energy fusion of world-class sleight of hand, razor-sharp wit, and spontaneous comedy. Every moment is interactive and unforgettable — where comedy meets conjuring. From mind-bending illusions to hilarious audience encounters, this is magic reimagined for the modern stage - clever, chaotic, and full of wonder.

"Staley isn't just performing magic, he's redefining it" Glam Adelaide, 2026
"Undoubtedly one of Australia's best magicians" Theatre Matters, 2024

Presenter
Presented by: Josh Staley
Josh Staley creates live performance art that seems utterly impossible. He is the Australian Champion of Magic, a top 12 finalist in close-up magic at the FISM World Championships (the "Magic Olympics"), and a Guinness World Record holder, having helped lead a team of magicians to break the record for longest magic show. Josh has appeared on TV and performed across Australia and overseas, including Adelaide Fringe and the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. His skills are constantly in demand, from corporate events and private parties to sell-out shows nationwide. Magic is about a moment where something truly impossible happens right in front of you. Josh creates those moments every time he performs, using sleight of hand, comedy, theatre and psychology.Social media
