The Illusionist Live in Singapore
Everyone loves magic, and after watching THE ILLUSIONISTS, you will love magic even more! A smash hit on Broadway, THE ILLUSIONISTS return to Singapore with an all new show and cast. Featuring 7 of the world’s greatest magicians, they broke box office records when it made its Broadway debut last year, and they return with new mind-blowing magic, death-defying stunts and acts of breath-taking wonder.
With all kinds of tricks in the book, THE ILLUSIONISTS are back, with something for everyone! Comprising of seven world-class acts, The Illusionists are The Escapologist (Krendl), The Enigma (Sam Power), The Manipulator (Hyun Joon Kin), The Alchemist (Leonardo Bruno), The Eccentric (Charlie Frye), The Clairvoyants (Thommy Ten and Amelie van Tass) and The Master Magician (Luis De Matos).
When we watched the show, Nathan and Nadine were in absolutely awe! (Nicole had to be home, cos it was exams week!) The two kids were raving about the show, telling their sister what she missed, how shocking some acts were, how amazingly impossible for one act and how incredible the other act was! Poor Nicole had to contend with the vivid descriptions and shoe review for at least the next 2 days!
We found the entire show very entertaining and engaging. The kids were woohing and aahing while the adults were just struck dumb at how the trick enfolded before their eyes. I remember looking more intently each time, my brain working overtime to figure out where and when and what… but the tricks were just too good, and there were just too many to think through!
The youngest magician in the show was a Korean who localised his entire show and won all of us over. Clearly, the showmanship and entertainment value in this show went beyond our expectations. Without revealing too much, I’ll let the kids tell you the BIGGEST highlight of the night!
My favorite part is when the magician led us to perform our own magic trick! At each of our seats, there was an envelope that said DO NOT OPEN. That is part of the magic trick that the magician will lead us to do. Everyone in the hall did it. And the trick was very cool!
And of course I’m not going to spoil the show for you. Go watch the show and find out how YOU can also be a magician.
The New York Times calls it “a high-tech magic extravaganza” and NY1 cheers, “Awesome. A solid 10!” Come join the Eccentric, the Clairvoyants, the Escapologist, the Master Magician, the Alchemist and the Manipulator for a thrilling, mind-bending, jaw-dropping ride!
