ABOUT THE SHOWS

2022-2023 Subscription Shows:

November 2-December 4, 2022:  Henry Evans in “The Enchanted Cards of Buenos Aires”
No one is faster or more skilled with a deck of cards than Henry Evans. Nicknamed ‘Argentina’s merry magician’ Henry is a FISM (the Olympics of Magic) European Champion. A performer, lecturer and creator of innovative card effects, Henry has become famous around the globe for his original and self-choreographed card routines. Recognized for excellence in over 40 countries, he holds more international championship wins than any other living performer. Henry has appeared on hit television shows worldwide, including Argentina, Chile, Spain, Lisbon, Japan, China, and Korea. Audiences around the globe revel in the grace, precision, and humor of Henry’s performance style. The best part of any Henry Evans show is that almost all of the magic happens in the audience’s hands.

Never before seen on U.S. soil, “The Enchanted Cards of Buenos Aires” brings one of Henry’s most popular performances to Pittsburgh as an American premiere. Part of Liberty Magic’s “Focus on Argentina” Series, “The Enchanted Cards of Buenos Aires” demonstrates why Henry Evans is regarded as the best card magician in the world. Every audience member in the theater has a perfect seat to witness over 52 mini-miracles each and every night. Deck after deck after deck, cards transform, suits change, and aces fly. With a whisper and a chuckle, Henry speaks to the cards and they bend to his will while resting in the hands of Liberty Magic’s guests. Don’t miss the show’s finale when a dozen strangers take the stage to reconstruct a magical feat only attempted once before in American history.

For over a decade, the Philadelphia native has been presenting “real magic for real people” to audiences in hundreds of American cities and over 25 countries worldwide.

A highly sought performer, Ran’D has been featured at the South African Arts Festival, Presidential Inauguration in Washington, DC, and Guantanamo Military Base.

You may have spotted him in NBC’s “Crossing Jordan,” Disney’s “I’m in The Band,” “Major Crimes,” “The Big Bang Theory,” “Mike and Molly,” “Hot In Cleveland,” “Anger Management” and over 200 hours of TV and film. Steve Valentine has carved out a unique place for himself in show business. He’s constantly changing and morphing into a myriad of wild, quirky, funny, dangerous, and always unique characters.

He was named Close-up Magician of the Year two years in a row and most recently Lecturer of the Year. Steve has travelled the world, performing in over 25 different countries, and had the honor of entertaining our troops overseas. Pittsburgh audiences may recognize Steve as the scene stealing Conjurer in the Broadway production of “The Illusionists Magic of the Holidays,” which came to Heinz Hall in December 2019. After years of honing his comedic chops on the stage and screen, Steve Valentine has finally merged his two loves -- magic and acting -- to create his autobiographical theater show, “Life & Other Deceptions.” Fusing his well known, wicked, and cheeky sense of humor with incredible magic and masterful storytelling, this hit one-man show takes you on a wild ride through Steve Valentine’s life, featuring fascinating stories, never before seen magic, and incredible sleight-of-hand. Part performance art and part intricate magic act, this show is hilarious, dramatic, touching, intimate, raunchy, and mind-blowing.

Now he’ll use every trick in the book to deceive your senses and create an unbelievable experience. 

Originally from Herkimer, New York, Jimmy currently lives in Orlando, Florida, and has traveled the world to share his talents. He’s performed at the Magic Castle in Hollywood, the Chicago Magic Lounge’s 654 Club, A Taste of Magic in New York City, and the Shanghai Magic Festival.

October 5-30, 2022:  Peter Samelson in “Devils ‘N Details”
Illusionist, entertainer, and philosopher, Peter Samelson blends simplicity and sophistication while provoking thought and inspiring wonder. Christened the "soft-spoken conceptualist of sorcery" by The New York Times, Samelson has performed atop the Great Wall of China, in the jungles of Bali, and the universities of Tokyo. From Kenya to the Magic Castle, from television to trade shows, college campuses to commercials, the New York stage, night clubs and celebrity events, Samelson has distinguished himself not only as a magician, but as an artist.

February 14-26, 2023:  Mr. Messado in “Ringistry”
What is “Ringistry”--? It’s the artistry of the linking rings. A standard of magic performed in a way you’ve never seen before. A modern interpretation of an ancient craft that highlights the cool in the classics, the suave in sleight of hand and the inspiration inherent in witnessing the impossible. Mr. Messado’s story begins on the TV screen of his grandmothers Philadelphia living room where global stars like Michael Jackson and David Copperfield ignited a love for entertainment and storytelling. In this deeply personal, hilarious, and engaging performance, revived for a second run by popular demand, you’ll get to know the mister behind the magic, the rabble-rousing raconteur behind the rings, you’ll get to know the magic of Mr. Messado.

April 12-30, 2023:  Jon Tai in “Road Signs”
Jon Tai is a critically acclaimed magician and storyteller whose mission is to foster connections between people through shared moments of astonishment. He is best known for having co-created and starred in “Missed Connections” at off-Broadway’s Drama Desk Award-winning 59E59 Theaters in New York City, following a sold-out run at Chicago’s MacArthur and multi-Jeff Award-winning A Red Orchid Theatre Company. Chris Jones, Chief Theater Critic of the Chicago Tribune, writes that Tai “proves magic’s power” while Catey Sullivan of the Sun-Times calls him “beguiling" and “simply astonishing.”

Jon is a proud Pittsburgher who lives with his wife Kate and tiny dog Nina in Troy Hill. Whereas “Missed Connections” took audience members on a cosmic mission across the multiverse, Jon is thrilled to come home to Liberty Magic with Road Signs – his earthly exploration of the quintessential American road trip and the various magical encounters one faces along the way.

June 14-July 2, 2023:  Eric Jones in “The Immaculate Deception”
In December of 1972 something magical happened at Three Rivers Stadium. To this day spectators are unsure just how it transpired. Through some combination of skill, chance and miracle Steelers fullback, Franco Harris, recovered a fumbled ball and pulled the team from the depths of sure defeat, scoring a game winning touchdown with 30 seconds on the clock. One of the greatest plays of all time -- The Immaculate Reception. Back by popular demand, Eric Jones, Liberty Magic’s Inaugural Magician and Artistic Advisor, revives the original production that draws inspiration from our city’s history of miraculous moments! Featuring perplexing prestidigitation created with Pittsburgh in mind, this premier production is sure to amaze and inspire. Don’t take your eye off the ball… or the card… or the coin… You just might catch “The Immaculate Deception.”

Hailing from Philadelphia, Eric has been astounding audiences world wide for nearly 20 years. He has appeared on Comedy Central, on The CW’s Masters of Illusion, successfully fooled Penn and Teller on the hit show “Fool Us” and was among the final 12 contestants on season 12 of “America’s Got Talent”.
