Knight of Illusions Returns : Magic at its best 

An evening of magic, illusions and mind-reading unveiled as three world champion magicians performed their talents at the ‘Knight of Illusions Returns’ for the first time in Sri Lanka. Many children and adults pooled in to the Musaeus College auditorium to witness the mind-blowing talents of Yasas Gunaratne, Hannibal, two-time world champion Shawn Farquhar from Canada along with Thommy Ten and Amélie Van Tass, the current world champions in Mentalism. The entire show was filled with much glamour and enthusiasm as the audience was mesmerized with not one but many tricks which kept them curious to see what was next in line.
