Eoin's show is a theatrical and interactive magical event inspired by Victorian music hall in which Eoin's characters are brought to life on stage. Eoin is the narrator of the piece and joined on stage by two actors and an illusionist playing the magician's apprentice, Riley. This is breaking new ground in terms of a children's author event. No other writer is performing and promoting their work in this way. It's a new way of making books appeal to children , to capture their attention and get them involved in fiction in a new way.
