For the first time at a British Ring Convention attendees will be able to enjoy an act that has thrilled audiences around the world; the stunning quick-change act of David & Dania. From the moment it made its debut in 1996 it has had audiences everywhere responding to it with tremendous ovations.It is a combination of a series of ballroom sequences with a sequence of dramatic and colourful costume changes. Every time it is performed it becomes a show-stopper, and it is not only the costume changes by Dania that are so brilliant it is also some fast magic by David that compliments and enhances this incomparable act.

David also talked to us about the pair’s upcoming appearances on BBC One’s ‘Tonights’ the Night’, a variety Quiz Show airing on 25th April in the UK, The Oprah ‘Best Of’ show featuring appearances all all of Oprah’s favorite acts during the series, a new touring show, ‘Pop Goes The Magic’ a live orchestra based magic show, and their very special workshop at the IBM Nashville convention in July.
