Book NowAbout the show
This late-night magic show from Illusionary Productions is billed as a chaotic ride packed with R-rated illusions, adult humour and sleight-of-hand. The show features one magician, audience participation, and content that the listing itself describes as having zero shame and no filter. It runs for 50 minutes at Grand Theatre and is strictly for ages 18 and over, with warnings for nudity, scenes of a sexual nature, strong language and audience participation.
Why see this show?
A deliberately irreverent late-night magic show for adults — the premise is shock and laughter in equal measure. If you want magic without the wholesome packaging, this is the one.
