Time Out Worldwide first announced that a live version of the ‘Now You See Me’ franchise will open at New York’s Al Hirschfeld Theatre. Subsequent coverage from People.com, IMDb, Broadway.com, Deadline, Variety, Playbill and BroadwayWorld added details. People.com described the show as a “magic spectacular” inspired by the movies, while IMDb noted the franchise is officially changing formats within two months.

Broadway.com and Ticket sites reported that tickets are now on sale, and Deadline and Variety highlighted that the production is billed as a stage illusion show slated for the holiday season. While each outlet emphasized slightly different angles—People.com focused on the “magic spectacular” label, Deadline used “stage illusion show,” and Variety simply called it a “live show”—none contradicted the core facts about venue, timing or ticket availability. No further changes to the announced schedule have been reported.

Audiences can secure seats through the channels mentioned by Broadway.com and other ticket vendors, and the show is expected to bring the film’s signature illusion acts to a live Broadway audience.
