From Clive Court's Facebook page:
After wowing the nation in this year’s Britain’s Got Talent – making it all the way to the final – illusionist Darcy Oake is back on our TV screens later this month with his very own one hour magic special filmed in Blackpool.
Darcy Oake: Edge of Reality is hosted by Christine Bleakley and shot on stage at the historic Opera House.
The Canadian took to the stage on Saturday night to thrill the crowd as he performed some jaw-dropping illusions.
Billed as an “evening of breath-taking, logic-bending illusions in the grand old tradition of stage magic fused with Darcy’s modern twist”, it certainly did not disappoint.

Darcy Oake shocks audience!
From Metro:
Magician Darcy Oake certainly doesn’t do things by halves. The daredevil Canadian is so determined to win Britain’s Got Talent that he put his own life at risk during the live show.
After being securely strapped in to a straight jacket, he was then suspended upside down above the stage in an open bear trap with just 53 seconds in which to escape. Oh, did we mention that rope holding the bear trap was on fire?

From The Toronto Star:
Winnipeg magician Darcy Oake says he’s planning “a very dangerous piece” for Saturday’s finale of Britain’s Got Talent as he competes for the top prize.
“The way we’re doing it, it’s risky — big time,” the 26-year-old said this week in a telephone interview from London. “But I feel like each piece needs to be bigger than the last one, and this is kind of the only way to close out the show for me.”

Darcy Oake at the Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre
From the Winnipeg Free Press:
For the first time in his 15-year-career, Winnipeg illusionist Darcy Oake will literally be playing with reality.
He'll hang by his ankles five metres above the ground, bound by a straitjacket. Reality will be waiting -- with giant metal jaws held open by a piece of burning rope -- to devour him if he doesn't get out in time.
"It's a race-against-time type of effect," says Oake, 24, who will perform the stunt at three shows at the Royal Manitoba Theatre Centre this Thursday and Friday.
Escaping Reality is his first full-scale solo show in his hometown. It's also a benefit to raise money and awareness for the Bruce Oake Memorial Fund.
