Hold onto your Hat & Rabbit

LONDON (Reuters) - A thief stole a magician's black top hat and white rabbit in the middle of one of his performances and then staged a disappearing act, police say.

The Great Velcro -- whose Web Site boasts "Have Rabbit will travel" -- was half an hour into his show at the Komedia club in Brighton when a man who had been heckling him got on to the stage.

He swiped the magician's hat which had his rabbit Georgina inside and fled.

"At first people thought it was part of the act," a police spokeswoman said on Wednesday.

The audience chased after the man when they realised he was stealing the props, but the thief simply disappeared.
