Acclaimed magician and storyteller Belinda Sinclair brings her unique brand of theatrical magic to the Hughes Memorial Library in Cornwall with The Conjuring Room: An Evening of Magical Women—a 90-minute immersive experience that fuses illusion, allegory, and history. Sinclair, known internationally for her sleight of hand and narrative craft, has long explored the hidden stories of women in magic—those who, through wit and daring, convinced audiences that miracles were not only possible but real.

In this intimate performance, Sinclair transforms the stage into both classroom and séance, leading guests through centuries of magical history from the perspectives of the women who shaped it. Her storytelling moves seamlessly between the scholarly and the spectacular, revealing how female magicians and mediums operated at the margins of theater, science, and spirituality to challenge convention.

Part performance, part historical journey, The Conjuring Room invites participation from the audience, who become part of the unfolding mystery. Each gesture, each trick, is layered with meaning—an allegory for perception, power, and belief.

Belinda Sinclair’s work has been featured at the Magic Circle in London and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and her current engagement in Cornwall offers local audiences a chance to witness her acclaimed blend of artistry and intellect.

Performances run from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m. Reservations are required. Details and booking information can be found at theconjuringroom.com.
