Magic Circle Museum – 12 Stephenson Way, Kings Cross, London NW1 2HD, UK

The Magic Circle is a group of British illusionists who like to keep their magic secret. However, there is a collection of fascinating magical artefacts, posters and props to see in the Magic Circle Museum as well as a theatre holding regular magic shows. There is also a library of books to explore relating to the art of illusion throughout history. Pictured here is the famous Houdini’s cabinet, but as noted by the Evening Standard you can also see Tommy Cooper’s fez on display.
