Meet the illusionist

Bringing the magic to the Abu Dhabi Summer Season (ADSS), Saudi Arabian illusionist Ahmad Al Bayed will perform on August 3-5 at Al Raha Beach Theatre as part of his Take Off World Tour.

Al Bayed was a finalist in the 2011 edition of reality show Arabs Got Talent. Last year, he starred in his own television series Kheifa with Ahmad Al Bayed.

He has performed death-defying stunts in the past, some of which have landed him in the hospital.

ADSS, a month of mall activations, stage shows and theatrical performances, will go on until August 20. Tickets are Dh300-Dh700 online.
