Penn & Teller On Tour
Not exactly comedians but more than just magicians, Penn & Teller bring a quirky combination of laughs and illusions to every performance. You're ready to laugh before they even trot out their tricks, with the big, brash Penn Jillette towering over his staid, unspeaking partner Teller. And once they dip into the bag of tricks they've been perfecting since the 1970s, you're simultaneously dazzled and delighted. Whether they're working with things like magic bullets, nail guns, and straitjackets, or just employing a seemingly ordinary deck of cards to demonstrate some sleight of hand, the duo can make you doubt your own senses as they appear to make the impossible happen right before your eyes. Sometimes they toss a touch of danger into the mix, and sometimes they simply play the whole thing for laughs, but whatever illusion they're unveiling, Penn & Teller can always pull it off.
Penn & Teller Background
America's most famous magic/comedy duo actually started out as a trio in the '70s, but when third member Weir Chrisemer left in 1981, Penn Jillette and Raymond Teller (who has always gone by just his surname) continued on together, and it was then that their star began to rise. With TV appearances on such shows as Late Night With David Letterman and Saturday Night Live, a series of Broadway shows, and their own Emmy-winning special on PBS, Penn & Teller carved out a niche in show business and became household names in the process. In the years that followed, they became TV personalities in their own right, first with a Showtime series and then with Fool Us on the CW. They've earned their own star on Hollywood's Walk of Fame. They've appeared in music videos by Run-DMC and Katy Perry. They've established a record-breaking residency in Las Vegas. And throughout all of these accomplishments, Penn & Teller have shown that a big, loud guy and a small, silent guy can make people gasp and guffaw at the same time.
Penn & Teller were spectacular! They put on an amazing show and you leave in awe. You will never see the same show twice with them! This show was worth every penny and I would definitely see it again. A great mix of comedy and magic
The show was outstanding - great tricks, great effects, great set, great comedy, great presentation and the two most likeable and best paired magicians in history. Penn & Teller is the best magic show I’ve ever seen
It’s rare that a bucket list item even meets expectations as we build things up in our own head until there’s no way it can measure up. Penn & Teller have been on my bucket list for a long time, but their show is at 9 pm and for a 40year old East coast mom that’s a tough time. This trip to Vegas we finally went to the show. It was absolutely phenomenal! Even better, the whole family loved it (that’s very rare with our crew.). They incorporated the audience well and the magic was really on point, I have no idea how they did any of it. Extremely impressive! Highly recommend Penn & Teller!!! We took a couple of 15 year olds and felt good about them being there, but it’s definitely not for every family.
Great show. There’s a reason these guys have been at it for so many years. 5-Stars
The show was amazing! You get comedy and magic all wrapped up in one! The atmosphere was fun and the way Penn interacts with the audience is hilarious. The magic tricks were crazy good!
The humor of the show was very good but the magic seemed rather ordinary. I guess I was expecting much more as this was Penn & Teller! We had a good time but not a great time.
Excellent Show and excellent showmen! Had seen them at various times on TV, but in-person show was great and 90 minute show was over was over in a blink!
I have seen Penn and Teller 5 times and I love the fact that the show has never been the same each time!! It’s always funny and surprising at the same time!
Overall, it was very nice- however I have seen some of the magics on TV. I was hoping to watch something different.
After many many years of wanting to see them live in person, I was finally able to make it happen. I love their combination of magic and comedy. A thoroughly entertaining show that my teen/young adult children loved and my wife. Not easy to please everyone.
Still such a great show after such a long run, so funny and hard to believe what your eyes are seeing
Well worth the price! We appreciate the seating upgrade.
I feel really bad saying it, but this show was very corny. This was the only show my boyfriend wanted to see and he almost fell asleep twice. Not funny and tricks were not impressive. :-(
First rate entertainment! You will Not be disappointed!
Funny, entertaining and definitely leaves you wondering, hey how did they do that?
I love these guys I seen them before on TV. Magic was awesome Show was great
Very entertaining show. Saw them in March and they added a lot of new material for this show. Some of the tricks (most of them) leave you scratching your head wondering how the hell it was done. Lots of good laughs. Well worth the price of admission. The venue was fantastic, other places looking to build an entertainment should take a look here first.
There was a never a wow moment Was a waste of time and money It was like kids magic show
The Penn and Teller show was amazing! From start to finish, it was very entertaining. The magic, the storytelling, the comedy was fantastic. Thank you for bringing your show to Niagara Falls and using the OLG stage (which is an amazing venue). Hopefully see you again soon
A fun evening of magic- sometimes a little difficult to see but some great magic overall
