If you're looking for a unique night out in Las Vegas, The Magicians Study is a must-visit. This intimate magic show strikes a perfect balance between mystery, comedy, and magic, creating an unforgettable experience.The adventure begins even before the show, with an email a week prior hinting at the location on the Strip, followed by another one on the day of the event with the exact spot and a password for entry - adding an element of speakeasy intrigue. The hostess at the door adds to this secretive vibe by only acknowledging those who know the magic word, playing dumb to any questions without it, which is quite the cool touch.The venue itself is small and cozy, hosting a maximum of 60 people, ensuring an up-close-and-personal experience. It's strictly for adults (21+), featuring adult humor but no nudity, which sets the tone for a night of mature, laughter-filled entertainment.The magician is the star of the show, blending magic with sharp wit and comedy. He interacts with the audience brilliantly, making everyone feel part of the act. If you opt for VIP tickets, you get front-row seats encircling the performer, which means you might find yourself part of the magic, but fear not, the involvement is fun, engaging, and never embarrassing.My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our time at The Magicians Study. The blend of magic and humor was just right, and we're already planning to return with friends. Highly recommended for those who appreciate a more personal and interactive magic show experience in Las Vegas.I hope this review captures the essence of your experience without giving away any of the show's secrets!

This is an incredible show and experience. If you're visiting Vegas and are looking for*magic*avoiding a big audience/crowds*comedy*exclusivity*class...then this is the show for you!As a magician myself, I of course love going to magic shows of all kinds, but close-up magic in intimate settings is my favorite. There are fewer "smoke & mirrors" to hide behind when you're only 5 feet away from the magician!Plus, the secretive nature of the set-up adds a lot of intrigue to the experience. And, as the rabbit asks, do treat this as a special occasion and DRESS UP! The venue will understand the assignment as well. There's a great bar for you to grab a drink beforehand.

Excellent and unique experience. It's an intimate show for Vegas, with only 3 rows and limited people. The magic is done well, and the magician is a top tier entertainer. The show maintains a great exclusivity with a secret location and mysterious setting up until you're seated. Nearly 2 hours flew by with the audience engaged the entire time.

I wanted to like this show more, but it felt very typical for a magic show. It's nice that it takes place in a small, intimate venue though. The invite-only setup seems to just be a way to get your contact information. If you're wanting to be selected to participate in tricks, get VIP tickets. Otherwise, the magician may talk to you briefly but not pull you up in front of everyone. I was hoping there might be something particularly spooky about this showing because it was in Halloween, but I think it was the normal show. Some reviews on here state there isn't any swearing, but there was tons of it at the showing I attended (in case that bothers you). Ultimately, the magician is funny and talented and you'll probably enjoy this show. His assistant was fabulous and mysterious.

Fun show. The magician is a great showman. He has put personal touches put into the show intentionally, and this raises the experience value.My only rec is to not arrive as early as the email states. But if you do, check in and then hang out in the lounge across the hall for a drink and the live pianist.

We just attended this event last week and it was amazing. I had heard of it, thought it sounded great, bought VIP tickets and THEN read the reviews. They were mixed, so I was concerned. I did not have to be. We had a really great time.Pro tip: you have to actually state the statement to get in. You can't just say something similar. Haha Ok. The room that you go into fits less than 50 people and 14 people are in the VIP front row. Everyone in the front row does have interaction in the show. Some others from the other rows also have some audience participation.Yes, the magician swears. If that bothers you, this probably is not going to be the show for you. This does not bother me. He is also funny and I was impressed with the magic he performed. Sure there is always going to be suspicion that people in the audience are plants. I guess the only way to know is to keep going back and see if they show up again? Whatever he did, I found it all fun and amazing. He kept us amazed and laughing. Everyone in our show seemed to have a great time. I definitely recommend the show to anyone interested in magic. SO FUN!

We had a wonderful time! My husband love magic shows. I found about this show on Tik Tok of all things. There was only one review on YouTube. I showed this to my husband and he wanted to attend. We had a tight schedule in Vegas. The only day we were able to attend was the Thursday evening show. We almost didn't make it. Our flight was delayed several hours. We made and we got 2nd burst of energy. This magician was charming, funny, & engaging. He utilized every person on the vip couch for audience assistance. This style of magic is the intimate. It small on purpose. He is probably the only person in Vegas that is doing this. I say in Vegas cause I know a few in New York that's does small magic show. The only down side was where they were holding us until we walked into the room it's was like a library there was a bar but no bartender. We had to walk to a restaurant and get a drink at that bar. No one told us this I had to observe this. When guys visit the website read everything the clue to buy the tickets is the on there. BOOK YOUR TICKETS! If you want a unique experience in Vegas this is it.

I was pretty disappointed by this show for many reasons. For one, it's advertised as being in a surprise location... it's literally in the same location for every show. Drinks in the bar attached are $22 for basic cocktails. The chairs were rickety and wobbly high chairs, and the microphone on the magician had feedback so we couldn't really hear a lot of things. The show claims to have tricks that have never been seen before, that it's intimate, and has a big hype around being one of the best new shows on the strip. Most all of the tricks I saw him perform were sleight of hand, and a lot of card tricks I couldn't see because I was sitting in the back corner. Seats are not assigned in the section you purchase, so don't be first to line up if you don't want to sit on the side seats. The seat I had in the 3rd row far end, which was $100 and had a partially obstructed view by not only the two rows of heads blocking you, but also for a lot of the card tricks. If you want to participate at all in this "intimate" show, the magician doesn't interact with anyone that isn't sitting in the front row, of which he uses multiple times throughout the show. The comedy was so flat. The humor was a little tacky and the audience seemed to be silent a lot of times. I feel like this show is way too overhyped and expensive. I've looked at a lot of google and internet reviews that rave about this show, but a lot of them seem like local guides that are leaving reviews for their free VIP experience. Overall, mostly card tricks I couldn't see because of my partially obstructed view and it being so dark and small. A lot of bad jokes I couldn't understand. 2 stars for his energy and positive attitude, but for a show, I would recommend saving your money for something else. I heard from someone that this may be 5 or so different guys rotating, so that's why they wear the rabbit head in photos (the magician performs without the helmet).

We had a visiting magician during our visit, and he was fantastic. He never cussed and was respectful to everyone. Our group sat at the second row, and we had a fantastic vantage point to see the hand tricks up close and personal without participating.The tricks are mind-blowing. A wonderful intimate show on the strip.

So excited to finally get tickets! They ask you to come early and grab a drink and doors open at 6:45. 6:50 the doors open and we get seated and show started at 7. Sooo many people were drunk and talking thru the entire show and the usher didn't tell them to be quiet. Very distracting and I felt very claustrophobic sitting shoulder to shoulder with everyone. Magic was amazing and the rabbit has a great sense of humor but maybe the email instructions shouldn't be so rushed to get us there to wait in a room looping the same music over and over. Make sure you pay attention to the vgk schedule to avoid traffic.
