Why see Penn & Teller?
Goodbye Las Vegas, Hello New York
Penn and Teller's Las Vegas show has been amazing high-rollers and holidaymakers alike for the past 14 years, but now the duo have decided the time is right for a trip to the Big Apple. The indefatigable tricksters are bringing their magic extravaganza to Broadway for a six-week run this July. It will mark their first proper show in New York since a week's residency at the Beacon Theatre in 2000, and promises to be a lively mixture of their Sin City material and some older signature illusions. Expect large scale magic tricks aplenty, delivered with bombast and humour.
Alongside their stage shows, Penn and Teller are best known for their various tv projects, including Penn & Teller: Bulls**t! on Showtime, on which they debunked fraudsters and spiritualists. They also recently collaborated on the lauded documentary Tim's Vemeer.

ENTERTAINMENT AT ITS FINEST
If you're looking for a true "magic show" you're better off going to the Magic Lounge or other such places. If you are looking to be entertained while enjoying wonderful illusions, audience participation tricks, comedy and a great night out, then this is the show for you. They do not disappoint. Their stories, illusions, comedy and work with the crowd is wonderful. My daughter had purchased tickets for my birthday last year and after a couple of cancellations we were finally able to go see them at this incredible venue. Their closing act was very heartfelt and very personal to them and we were walking down their memory lane along side Penn and Teller. Go see them and have a great time!! ... Read more

Entertainment at it's best!
Penn & Teller are known as magicians but this actually doesn't give
them nearly enough credit as complete performers. They are
magicians, and comedians, and jugglers, and musicians......
They put together an amazing show, incorporating the audience
into the majority of their act. They divulge magical tricks/secrets in
equal measure to astonishing with tricks the defy logic. All the while
keeping the crowd doubled over with laughter.
Even though this show was a bit cleaner and less gory than
previous shows, I was surprised at the number of people who
brought young kids. No spoilers but one particular trick did disturb
many of the kids sitting near me.
Overall, a great night and if you can, try and get a seat it the first
few rows if you want to be part of the act! ... Read more
