Now You See Me Live is a stage show inspired by the film franchise of the same name by Liongate. This production is a large-scale magic and illusion show featuring four performers known as The Horsemen. Alongside this quartet, guest acts including Britain’s Got Talent performers join them in this spectacle: bringing escapology, mentalism, sleight of hand, large illusions, audience participation and theatrical stunts. The London Coliseum is a grand venue which adds more star power to this production.
The Horsemen are a group of four talented performers. This includes James More, Andrew Basso, Gabriella Lester and Matthew Pomeroy. Each magician took turns to perform spectacular feats which impressed the audience. More was able to teleport from a chair seemlessly. Basso took on Houdini’s great feat live on stage! Lester survived a box full of explosions and Pomeroy created amazing tricks with cards (with a special guest from the audience). All four of them also completed tricks together and made the production come to life. Though the show takes inspiration from the Now You See Me franchise, there is little relation between the original movies and the show. Experiencing this production as a top tier magic show is the most appropriate approach.
Alongside The Horsemen, three special guest acts join the production. Fraser Penman is a rapidly emerging UK performer, known for being a stage hypnotist: being a Britain’s Got Talent Semi Finalist. Penman is able to confuse the audience with a screen which made for a great opening to the second half.
Rafferty Coope was on Britain’s Got Talent when he got the coveted Golden Buzzer during 2025. Well known for his spectacle acts, Coope is able to bring this into Now You See Me Live, with the incredible feat of only very young. His energy and passion are high and starts the show is off with excitement.
Eden Choi is a magician and next-generation manipulation artist, emerging from talent shows in multiple countries. Choi was a stand out, with his magic skills of summoning cards from his hands: a spectacle to witness!
