Now You See Me Live makes Las Vegas debut25 October 2026(PRESS RELEASE) -- Now You See Me Live made its U.S. premiere on the Las Vegas Strip this past weekend at the MGM Grand Theater inside MGM Grand Hotel & Casino Las Vegas. Brought to life by the producers of the record-breaking phenomenon The Illusionists, and in collaboration with global content leader Lionsgate, Now You See Me Live is a mind-blowing spectacle featuring four trailblazing illusionists. The world-class magic ensemble – inspired by the blockbuster film franchise characters, the “Horsemen” – stun audiences in a showcase of unmatched synergy. Assembled from around the globe, they bring an unbelievable arsenal of solo skills, shocking twists and grand feats of illusion to Las Vegas audiences. The “Horsemen” in the Las Vegas cast are: - Andrew Basso (Italy) – A true daredevil known for his death-defying acts, Basso became the first, and youngest, Italian to win the World Escape Championship. - Gabriella Lester (Canada) – At only 22 years of age, the quick-witted Lester is the youngest and only female Horseman, who mastered Houdini’s upside down straight-jacket escape when she was only 14. - Adam Trent (USA) – Harnessing the power of technology and deceptive sleight of hand, Trent has become a modern magical force by translating his skills from stage to screen to social media. - Enzo Weyne (France) – A specialist in large-scale magic of unprecedented proportions, Weyne is a visionary who creates technically groundbreaking and artistic illusions. The quartet has performed in thousands of shows combined across hundreds of cities, including sold-out residencies on Broadway and in Las Vegas, and has left spellbound audiences questioning the realms of possibility in their wake. In addition to the “Four Horsemen,” the cutting-edge production will feature a rotating roster of special guests throughout the run. Tickets are on sale now at ticketmaster.com for shows through 5 January 2027. For a complete show schedule and additional information, visit nowyouseemelive.com.
