FROM CREATORS OF THE ILLUSIONISTS & NOW YOU SEE ME LIVE

Tim and Simon have created, produced and presented some of the world’s best-selling shows in over 450 cities in 45 countries, smashing box office records across Australia, on Broadway, London and beyond. Their first production together was Le Grand Cirque which sold over 40,000 tickets in 10 days at the Sydney Opera House, followed by Ariel Dreams and Cirque Adrenaline. They then created what would become the world’s most successful group magic show, The Illusionists and it’s spin offs The Illusionists 2.0, The Illusionists 1903 – The Golden Age of Magic and The Magic of Christmas. These shows broke box office records around the world including The Palace, Marquis and Neil Simon Theatres on Broadway and The Shaftesbury Theatre in London.

Besides Cirque Alice, their acclaimed new show Lionsgate’s Now You See Me Live is currently smashing box office records at London’s Coliseum this summer prior to a Las Vegas residency and Broadway run, and their highly anticipated world premiere stage production of George RR Martin’s Game of Thrones: The Mad King, co-produced with the Royal Shakespeare Company, has just opened at the RST in Stratford to critical acclaim.

Breathtaking. Captivating. Spectacular. A wondrous evening filled to overflowing with incredible memories that will last a lifetime!
