An intriguing show of scams & swindles
from a professional cheat
A show of deception & roguish charm!
The saying goes: "Never give a sucker an even break!"
Prepare for an exciting display of mischief, chicanery, poker-faced cheating and a lesson or two in the art of the con.
Nick Stein has a fascination with card cheating, ancient con games and the delicate psychology of the proposition bet. This is a rare opportunity to enter the shady world of professional conmen, grifters and cheats without risk to your purse strings.
Ever walked past a game of Three Card Monte or a Shell and Pea game and thought: "I bet I could find it"?
Perhaps you’ve found yourself pipped at the post when all-in at a private game and suspected foul play?
This show is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to experience a front-row glimpse at a master of sleight-of-hand. Set in a beautiful and unique venue with only 13 seats available, expect a thrilling and intimate close-up encounter with a professional card mechanic.
So, brush that chalk mark off your back, come on in and try your luck.
"The con is on!"
