The Illusionists on Broadway

Control Geek: The first magic show I remember seeing as a kid in the 1970's was also the last magic show I saw on Broadway: Doug Henning's The Magic Show. Today, I saw The Illusionists on Broadway with my friend Bonnie A, and I really enjoyed it. The show features seven magicians, each with a different specialty. And in this version of the show (they seem to change the acts around depending on where the show is produced), there happily wasn't one "watch while my assistant crawls around inside this box" illusion, which I always find cheesy.
