    Where was the Anti-Conjurer?!

    by NoodlesNo1Fan on 2/28/17Oriental Theatre Chicago - Chicago

    Everyone was wonderful, especially the Trickster, but where was Dan Sperry, the Anti-Conjurer! He was the bizarre magician I'd come to see and he was not there. This was very disappointing, but I was not disappointed in the performances of the other illusionists.

    The Illusionists were amazing!

    by SPSkier on 2/27/17Oriental Theatre Chicago - Chicago

    This show was entertaining from the start to the finish. The MC, nicknamed the trickster, was very funny. The magic and Daredevil type stunts had us on the edge of our seats. I would recommend this show to anyone from the ages of 5 to 95 years old.

    Amazing magic

    by MVader71 on 2/27/17Oriental Theatre Chicago - Chicago

    Show was great. 7 different magicians. Got to see a little bit of everything. Would have liked to see a bit more from the escapist and daredevil acts. Korean card guy is amazing, seen youtube videos many times of this but never gets old.

    Terrific Show

    by DougR121 on 2/27/17Oriental Theatre Chicago - Chicago

    The title of this review says it all; I thought this was a captivating and very enjoyable show. The performers were all amazingly talented illusionists and gave fantastic displays of their skills. If you are even a little interested in magic, see this show.

    Outside, looking in!

    by NotMagicalTheIllusionist on 2/27/17Oriental Theatre Chicago - Chicago

    Yes, we got the cheaper tickets but you should still feel like you're present at the show. Sitting on the balcony you felt ignored and extremely distant from what was going on. Some magic parts were impressive while others were just wasting time and not very exciting. First time I've even went to a show were I didn't feel like I got my money worth.

    Great show

    by MissMia21 on 2/27/17Oriental Theatre Chicago - Chicago

    We loved it. We took our daughter for her birthday. She was amazed. We all laughed thru the entire performance. The adult jokes were just far enough over the kids' head to where I wasn't even the slightest bit uncomfortable. No "omg, cover your ears" moments☺ My only complaint is the card tricks. I loathe card tricks, but everyone else seemed to enjoy them and our daughter was completely baffled.

    The Illusionists make it a magical night!

    by Dave80 on 2/25/17Oriental Theatre Chicago - Chicago

    This show was sent to me through email as something I may like so I took a chance for my teenage son's birthday. Anything was better than another Chicago sport's team loss. The show was funny, engaging, and well, magical. The "down" side was the magicians have been on t.v. before so I've seen some of the acts but that was not a deal breaker. Fun for the whole family although a little adult humor made it PG but not too bad.

    fantastic show with inexplicable tricks. magicians were also funny and very entertaining! great audience interaction. suitable for most ages. the emcee (the trickster, jeff hobson) was a standout performer, very quick-witted, funny, engaging. another highlight was the deductionist (colin cloud) - completely mind-boggling!!
