SUMMARY:The Naked Magicians
DESCRIPTION:With a Las Vegas residency\, a season on London’s West End\, and seen in 250+ cities across the globe… \nTHE NAKED MAGICIANS is undoubtedly the world’s funniest and naughtiest magic show! Witnessed by over 50 million on TV (NBC\, ABC\, FOX\, CBS)\, including “America’s Got Talent” and “Entertainment Tonight\,” it’s the Aussie smash hit that’s taken the world by storm! \nPerfect for date night or the ultimate girls night out\, THE NAKED MAGICIANS have performed – and undressed – for millions of fans in more than 300 cities worldwide making them the most successful Australian magic act in history. \nThe two hot and hilarious performers deliver world-class magic and non-stop laughs while wearing nothing but a top hat and a smile. Described by The Huffington Post as “the wildest night ever\,” this tantalizingly satisfying magic show strips away the top hats\, capes\, and magic stereotypes\, bringing a whole new meaning to “now you see it.” \nGood magicians don’t need sleeves\, and great magicians don’t need pants. This show proves just that!
