MASTERS OF ILLUSION FEB 13 at RIDGEFIELD PLAYHOUSE

Witness some of the greatest illusions of our time when Masters of Illusion: Believe the Impossible arrives at The Ridgefield Playhouse Tuesday, February 13th.

 

If you loved the Broadway smash-hit The Illusionists, don’t miss Masters of Illusion! Illusions, magicians, comedy and more! Fun for the entire family, Masters of Illusion perform sleight-of-hand, perplexing interactive mind magic, hilarious comedy, dangerous escapes and large-scale illusions when their incredible new show, Believe The Impossible, floats in to The Ridgefield Playhouse on Tuesday, February 13th at 7pm, part of the Ridgefield Academy Family Series and Ridgefield Magazine Broadway & Cabaret Series. This show features top magicians and illusionists from Season 4 of the award-winning CW television series “Masters of Illusion,” including Naathan Phan, Chipper Lowell, Michael Turco and Jarrett & Raja.  

Masters of Illusion: Believe the Impossible stars the world’s greatest award-winning magicians. This 21st century magic show is unlike anything you have seen before – filled with modern illusions and arts of deception, performed live on stage. Watch closely as you experience things that just can’t be done……or can they? Audiences will be held at the edge of their seats by the jaw-dropping grand illusions, and laugh out loud at the hysterical comedy magic as these performers from around the world combine fantasy, fervor and flair with magic created in front of your very eyes.

 

Magician Naathan Phan hooks you with his Robin Williams-paced wit and humor, perfectly punctuated by his well-practiced prestidigitation, and geared towards the audience, whatever age(s) they may be. Aside from being a magician, Phan also is adept at doing celebrity impressions. For over 20 years, Chipper Lowell has been bringing his odd brand of infectiously amusing mayhem to audiences around the world at performing arts center, theaters, cruise ships, casino showrooms and corporate events.  He has been honored with “Comedy Magician of the Year” twice, “Specialty Act of the Year,” and was listed among the “Top Funniest Magicians Performing Today” by Magic Magazine.  Michael Turco spent his summers  just miles from the strip in Atlantic City, where he saw every magic show in the area and became intent to master each trick and illusion himself.  He has had his own show in Las Vegas at Planet Hollywood casino and brings little bit of Jersey to all of his performances. Billed as “Master Illusionist & Piano Genius,” Jarrett & Raja have entertained millions worldwide with their amazing and unique blend of magic, music and comedy.  Trained at The Juilliard School, the duo were semi-finalists on NBC’s “America’s Got Talent” and appeared on ABC’s “Shark Tank” and CBS’s “Late Show with Stephen Colbert.”
