Hidden Wonders Speakeasy Magic Experience (Copy)
Hidden Wonders is a speakeasy-style performance venue hidden behind a fake business facade in New Westminster’s historic downtown. It is part of a new trend in magic entertainment that focuses less on grand-scale illusions and more on intimate experiences that leave the audience awestruck and moved. Confirmed guests will only be given the address for the venue once their tickets have been purchased.
The seventy-five-minute magic experience features effects exclusively designed for the venue as well as several of the effects Shawn created to win the world championship and to fool Vegas’s Penn & Teller twice on their hit television show Fool Us.
The goal is to offer an intimate and exclusive up close and personal magic experience that is unparalleled. Hidden Wonders’ track record of continuously selling out shows is a positive indication that this trend is certain to continue as tickets are disappearing fast.
