Shows and performance
Private magic shows, public performances, bespoke story-led shows, venue residencies and character-led entertainment.
Five kinds of work, one habit: start with the guest experience, then build whatever it takes to make it real.
Private magic shows, public performances, bespoke story-led shows, venue residencies and character-led entertainment.
Story-led guest experiences, magical trails, interactive installations, hospitality experiences and themed environments.
Interactive props, sensor-triggered effects, audio and lighting control, physical-digital installations and custom magical objects.
Interactive characters, voice-based experiences and responsive magical mirrors. Guests meet a character; artificial intelligence does the quiet work underneath.
Self-guided escape experiences, puzzle systems, remote game control, story development and venue-specific installations.
Every themed room we build comes with its own controller in your pocket. The Faun's Hideaway has a Gothic mirror that listens and speaks. The Beaver's Den becomes an escape room at the press of a button. AI props, live characters, hardware we wire ourselves, and the software that ties it all together.
Wizards of Ox Workshop creates many of the illusions, characters and interactive systems found throughout Cedar Hollow. The woodland provides a rare setting in which ideas can be developed as complete experiences rather than isolated props.

Explore Cedar HollowWe design and build bespoke escape experiences for venues, hotels, festivals and private clients: story development, puzzle design, electronic props, self-guided operation, remote game control and venue-specific installation. From single-room puzzles to multi-act worlds, everything is built in-house and proven at Cedar Hollow first.
We take on a small number of commissions for venues, attractions and events that want something nobody else has.
