About the Performance
When the inevitable draws near, there is no turning back. A man. A funeral. A moment when everything comes to a head. In *Buried Alive*, magician and illusionist Pontus Lindman takes you on a dark, evocative, and unpredictable journey where fascination meets unease and nothing is quite what it seems.
Before the audience’s very eyes, Pontus is to be buried alive. Everything leads up to this single, decisive event. But how do we get there—and what happens when the line between what we think we know and what we actually experience begins to blur?
With large-scale set design, psychological illusion, and a dramatic structure that keeps the audience in the palm of its hand, *Buried Alive* is more than just a magic show. It is an intense and thought-provoking full-length performance in which the audience itself becomes part of the magic.
Do you dare step into the room?
Concept and screenplay: Pontus Lindman
Director: Jonathan Goodwin
About Pontus Lindman
He was already a professional at the age of twelve—working as a consultant for the industry’s largest production company, where he devised tricks for world-renowned magicians. This was followed by several years in the U.S. working on practical special effects for film and TV, before he brought his interactive magic back to Sweden in 2018.
Winner of Talang 2023, semifinalist on Britain’s Got Talent—and four sold-out tours of Sweden, with the fifth, *Levande Begravd*, on the way. Signed to United Stage under Universal Music Group.
Both of his TV breakthroughs involved escapes from a water tank. The third stunt was performed in 2021 at the Tuna-Hästberg Adventure Mine: strapped into a straitjacket, hanging upside down over an underground lake. For corporate events, magic and mind reading are the acts that are booked.
The productions are backed by the industry’s biggest names: *Conspiracy* and *Moments* were created in collaboration with director Russ Stevens, and *Buried Alive* with Jonathan Goodwin. Award-winning for his cultural work in magic and mind reading, Pontus has taken the show all over the world—throughout Europe, the United Kingdom, the United States, and Asia.
Behind the scenes, he has been creating customized experiences since 2008 for artists such as Coldplay, Rihanna, Linkin Park, and the Sex Pistols when they perform on stages across Sweden.
