A mysterious stranger, an aspiring musician, a cunning detective, a game of kibbitzers and a large map of London all come together in one of the most bizarre shows I’ve seen in a while.

The latter is where the show becomes more interesting, but this review will cover them in reverse order.
Sorcery
This category has to do with the performance of Leticia Lopez Margalli. Throughout the film she is referred to as a “witch”, and the evidence that people have to claim this includes a bag of bones and
