Who doesn’t like magic??!!

As my partner and I waited in the Crown Theatre to watch the magic show Now You See Me Live, the keen audience members included the young and old, families, couples, and groups of friends – showing the love of magic is alive and well in 2026.

Everyone has inside us a sense of curiosity, disbelief, and wonder… and the four horsemen who wowed us on Sunday night with their repertoire of magic tricks left us in jaw dropping awe.

The four horsemen on the evening consisted of the fun and amazing Matthew Pomeroy (UK), Andrew Basso (Italy), Gabriella Lester (Canada) and Pablo Canovas (Spain) who have performed their acts in many different countries around the globe.

Their two-hour performance on stage is inspired by the “Four Horsemen” in the film Now You See Me by Lionsgate and is brought to audiences by the same producers who brought the popular magic show The Illusionists to the stage.

Their bag of magic tricks and illusions was extensive and amazing and at times, breathtaking - as in I couldn’t believe what I was seeing and I hope the artist is going to survive!

Each horseman brings to the table their own unique tricks, honouring some of the great magicians of all time including the famous dare devil Houdini – legendary for his death defying acts.

All up, Now You See Me Live is a fun, entertaining and magical night for anyone who is game to watch some beautiful magic on stage and some death defying tricks all performed by a slick team of horsemen. Its got razzle and dazzle and much much more along with high end stage technology and lighting, making a perfect evening of entertainment for young and old alike.

And one more thing - be warned that you might be called up to participate – but don’t stress it’s all in the name of being a good sport for magic and the happy audience members that will be in the theatre !

Now You See Me Live is on at Crown Theatre Perth until 1 February.

Be quick to book your seat otherwise the magic may disappear right before your eyes!
