Cosentino is an ambitious, 22 year old Australian magician whose show is a peculiar mix of professional and amateur. 
His illusions and card tricks are polished, his escapes from a straightjacket and a water tank are terrifying, but his too-frequent patter is repetitive, lacklustre and interrupts the magic and spectacle. The show could be half the length without it.
