Robert Jägerhorn: Magic! “A charming, light and playful hour, bubbling with mimicry of silent movies, chaplinesque slapstick, excitement and magical disappearances.” - Helsingin Sanomat (the leading daily newspaper in Finland), 15.11.2009 Alfred Hitchcock's long-lost first silent film Number 8 has just been found, and due to some unexpected events, Robert Jägerhorn is forced to present this thrilling spy story through magic, stand-up comedy and theater. Synopsis: Shortly after the film begins, the movie projector explodes. While waiting for the technician to arrive, the performer goes through a lot of effort in order to keep his audience entertained. He plays the clarinet, spends some magical moments making tea and reveals the love of his life, among other things. Finally, realizing the technician will never arrive and in an effort not to lose his audience, Robert Jägerhorn decides to tell the story of Number 8 without the film. Quite a challenge! This is where Robert's inspiring magic and brilliant comedy and theater come together. He delivers the essentials of this fascinating story in a unique monologue creating an evening of breath-taking magic.
