Magician's Study

Detailing the life of Jazz Age magician Robert The Great' Rouncival, The Magician's Study is an extended tour of the deceased conjurer's study and the wondrous possessions therein. Through these disparate objects, including a desk stolen from Chekhov's estate, the audacious personality of the young magician is revealed. Cantankerous, acerbic, self-centred and an inebriate womaniser, Robert nevertheless captures the imagination as he blazes a blackly comic path from Bowery flophouse to stardom upon the great stages of the world.'
