Broadway's Marriott Marquis Theatre will play home to a holiday season engagement of The Illusionists — Witness the Impossible, running from November 26-January 4. Opening night is set for December 4. The magic show's Broadway bow is part of an ongoing 30-city national tour for the production.

The Illusionists — Witness the Impossible is described as a "mind-blowing spectacular [that] showcases the jaw-dropping talents of seven of the most incredible illusionists on earth." That list of seven performers includes Yu Ho-Jin (The Manipulator), Dan Sperry (The Anti-Conjuror), Jeff Hobson (The Trickster), Andrew Basso (The Escapologist), Kevin James (The Inventor), Andrew Crow (The Warrior), and Adam Trent (The Futurist).

Conceived and produced by Simon Painter, the show's creative team includes Neil Dorward (director) and Jim Millan (creative director). Tim Lawson serves as executive producer.
