Fodor's Expert Review Monday Night Magic

Since 1997, Michael Chaut and three other magician producers have been running these weekly performances in and around Greenwich Village (they've been a permanent fixture at the Players Theatre since 2011). The acts, usually four per night, come from all over the world and often include performers you'd see in much bigger theaters and clubs on other nights. The mind reading and sleight of hand with birds, cards, balls, and handkerchiefs come at a fast pace. Although the acts are tailored to an adult audience, they're also suitable for younger viewers (aged 12 and older), particularly on special family nights.
