Broadway.com caught up with the cast of The Illusionists to talk about their Broadway holiday show… and two of The Illusionists (Dom Chambers and Eric Chien) were guests on the most recent episode of Broadway.com’s Live at Five. You can see the 20+ minute episode for free here.
Siegfried and Roy protege Darren Romeo, the singing illusionist knowns as the Voice of Magic, is ending his run in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. Also, in a statement to Business Wire about his decision to move on, the illusionist confirmed he is both gay and in a long term relationship. Although there are no statements on future tours or residencies for his magic show, Romeo is working on a new musical.
Our video is from a WBIR piece from about this time last year covering Romeo’s 2018 holiday shows.
Fernando Velasco is currently touring with the Champions of Magic, which is why the San Francisco Chronicle talked to him over the weekend about his career in magic. This clip is a performance from his solo show.
