Esoterica

Metaphysics. Philosophy. Card tricks.

About Me

Esoterica is a ninety minute, multi-media theatrical tour-de-force in which critically-acclaimed actor, magician and mentalist Eric Walton leads his audience on an unforgettable exploration of the rich and complex tapestry of the human psyche. THE NEW YORK TIMES “Impressive. The magic in ESOTERICA is a lot of fun.”VARIETY “Walton is a charming mountebank, his 100-minute parade of card tricks a delight, but it's the human touch that makes for a good show.”NYTHEATRE.COM “It’s a dazzler. ESOTERICA is half con, half illusion, but it's almost always astonishing. And it's 100% pure theatrical magic.”THE NEW YORK DAILY NEWS “[Walton is] a card-carrying intellectual.”TALKINGBOADWAY.COM “Walton is darkly charismatic...[his] impeccable timing, sense of humor, and showmanship grants it all the gravity of a world-class accomplishment.”AMERICANTHEATERWEB.COM “Walton fills ESOTERICA with not only amazing sleight of hand, but also a good measure of urbane humor. His ability to accomplish this, while also maintaining his charming, almost Oscar Wildean demeanor, is perhaps what astounds most.”THE NEW YORK POST “Walton is smarmy AND pretentious!” {Bold print added.}BACKSTAGE WEEKLY “The success of ESOTERICA lies in Walton’s realization that a magic show should also be a theater piece. [He has] written the show with wit and care [and] delivers his material with grace and charm without a surfeit of arrogance.”
