David Copperfield, whom the New York Times calls "our era's giant of magic," is touting An Intimate Evening Of Grand Illusion as his most spectacular stage show ever. Dazzling new illusions include "Lottery," one of the most incredible predictions in the history of magic.
Beyond anything that has ever been attempted in magic or theater, Copperfield charts new territory…literally. During each performance, Copperfield transports himself and a member of the audience from the stage to a deserted island on the other side of the planet. Because the concept is so hard to believe, it is important for Copperfield to take proof during his journey. Items are randomly collected from audience members: clothing, distinctive mementos and signed and dated Polaroid photographs of the audience. In addition to the selected items, a lucky audience member is chosen to join him for the journey of a lifetime. Together, they vanish on a platform suspended over the heads of the audience. Within seconds, travel is complete and they are seen on a live satellite uplink at their chosen destination. Unbelievably, they are wearing the items of clothes, carrying the personal mementos and holding the signed photograph.
During his engagement at the Hollywood Theatre, Copperfield reinvents his art form and proves why he remains the undisputed King of Conjurers. Each show, the illusionist will attempt to walk through a solid steel wall – passing his entire body from one side of the steel to the other. |
