Description

Magic for Animals is a one-woman magic show about agency, consent, and animal rights. Liz Toonkel uses sparkling, incisive humour to offer a refreshing antidote to the gendered and speciesist tradition of magic. It examines how we treat animals, and urges us to reconsider how we treat one another. By day, Liz is a production designer who's shaped the look of such films as Marcel the Shell with Shoes On and Emily the Criminal, by night she's a performance artist and magician.
