In this episode of Rebel Artists Through Time, dancer and magician Richard Essien — better known as Magical Bones — shares his journey from London street performer to global stage artist redefining what magic can be.
From breakdancing with Madonna, Alicia Keys, and the Black Eyed Peas to captivating millions on Britain's Got Talent, Bones fuses rhythm, storytelling, and illusion into a new form of performance art. His groundbreaking act honoring Henry Box Brown, the 19th-century freedom fighter who mailed himself to freedom, celebrates creativity as liberation.
In this conversation, Bones shares:
- How breakdance and magic taught him to bend every rule in art
- Why storytelling is at the heart of his illusions
- The power of representation in performance
- How artists can turn risk and imagination into freedom
A masterclass in creative defiance and the art of possibility.
