In three weeks of performances, "The Illusionists..Witness the Impossible" has recouped it's 1.75 million dollar investment for the Broadway run. Plans are already made for a return next year.
Last week, the gross was approximately 1,214,000 with 85% full houses. This week will start four days with three shows a day. Can someone say welcome to vaudeville? Here is the recent complete article. http://www.broadwayworld.com/article/THE......20141222 Still to come a 30 city tour with most of the cities being 5 or 6 day dates. So who really cares how they were panned by the reviewers...the paying public loves it and that is what counts in the end. Richard

Theatre and film reviewers are mostly about themselves. They see so many different performances that they get excited about something that is new or novel to them. Their advice is rarely helpful to the typical ticket buyer. The average audience member would do better asking the opinion of any random person who saw the performance.
