Shin Lim on Tour
Catching Shin Lim in the act is unlike watching any other magician perform. Instead of making people disappear or sawing them in half, he simply concentrates on card tricks. But he raises the level of his sleight of hand with a deck of cards to a fine art.
There's drama, music, and a kind of a ballet to Lim's magic. And he's known for performing his illusions without uttering a word, letting his hands and his cards do all the talking while his carefully curated music — Lim started out as a musician — tickles the audience's ears. If you've seen him in one of his many television appearances, be it Penn & Teller: Fool Us, America's Got Talent, or Jimmy Kimmel Live, then you've experienced only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to a Shin Lim live performance.
Shin Lim Background
Born in Vancouver to Singaporean parents and raised in Massachusetts, Shin Lim had two passions in his youth: music and magic. He was studying music in college when he learned that he was suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome. This discovery caused him to abandon playing the piano in favor of becoming a professional magician.
He got one of his first big breaks when he was given the chance to tour in China. Since he didn't speak the language, he kept silent during his tricks, and that practice became a signature of his shows. Bringing a bold, unprecedented artistry to the realm of card tricks, Lim really began to hit it big when he worked his magic on TV's Penn & Teller: Fool Us in 2015. The performance became a social media sensation that elevated his profile dramatically. Since then, he's frequently appeared on TV, twice becoming a winner on America's Got Talent. And he tours widely, taking his illusions everywhere from Las Vegas to Broadway.
We went here for a bachelor party and had a blast. Shin was phenomenal and his show is a must see!
He is very talented at card tricks! It would be nice to see him do other magic.
This was a great show. Shin Lim's close up magic is just mind-blowing. He had a mentalist on his show too and he was both hilarious and amazing. Definitely book this show if you are in Vegas.
The show was amazing and so exciting!! Would definitely recommend to everyone. I would also watch it again.
While we came with no expectation this was the most impressive magician show we have ever seen. The combination of Shin-Lim and the Mentalist Colin Cloud was especially fascinating. Both of them are masters of their trade. Not only the magical acts but also the atmosphere created were very special - Shin Lim was our favorite show during this week-long vacation.
Awesome show and was really nice to meet him he's a very nice guy!
Loved this show! My favorite in Las Vegas. Both Shin Lim and Colin Cloud are both amazing! Their energy and how they keep people engaged the whole show It's just amazing. Highly recommended it.
From the time Shin Lim walked on stage to the end it was non stop entertainment. Awesome! I will see it again!
This show was amazing and mesmerizing. We loved it so much. It was the best show we saw on our Las Vegas vacation! You don’t want to miss it!
I read a bunch of the reviews and being that it is a magic show, the closer to the front the better. My 15 year old son and me enjoyed the show a lot! Shin is incredible with playing cards!
