The Illusionists - final two magicians named
THE FINAL two world-class magicians have been announced for The Illusionists – Witness The Impossible, which runs at the Shaftesbury Theatre from Saturday, November 14, 2015 to Sunday, January 3, 2016.
They are The Manipulator, Den Den, and The Trickster, David Williamson, and they will join the already announced Jamie Raven, Andrew Basso, Kevin James, Colin Cloud and Ben Blaque.
The Manipulator, Den Den. Regarded as the magician of the moment, The Manipulator’s act combines a truly entrancing, poetic approach to card trickery with brilliant dexterity. His ‘now you see it, now you don’t’ trickery keeps the audience utterly engrossed, mixing visually beautiful performance with mind bending magic.
He was recently named Magician of the Year (2014) by the Academy of Magical Arts and received the highest accolade from the Society of American Magicians. His award-winning act has marked him as one of the best in the world of manipulation!
The Trickster, David Williamson. Williamson’s wicked sense of humour, combined with unrivalled, spectacular illusions has cemented him as a firm favourite and a must-see in the world of magic. With high praise from The International Brotherhood of Magicians, he has also been awarded “Most Wanted Magician” and has previously worked alongside fellow star illusionists David Blaine and David Copperfield. He has also hosted hit UK TV series.
The Illusionists – Witness The Impossible, with a mesmerizing mix of death-defying stunts, breath-taking illusions and dazzling magic tricks, has something for the whole family when it comes to London following sell-out success on Broadway.
Produced by Simon Painter, Tim Lawson, Road Show Entertainment LLC, Stuart Galbraith and MagicSpace Entertainment and conceived by Simon Painter, the show’s creative team also includes Executive Producer Tim Lawson and Director Neil Dorward.
