Following last year's engagement at the Marquis Theatre last year, The Illusionists returns to Broadway tonight for a limited holiday season run at the Neil Simon Theatre. Neil Dorward directs the show, which is scheduled to run through January 3.

The Illusionists' return Broadway engagement includes three new "magical superheroes" who will contribute new stunts and sleight-of-hand acts. The group, including Jonathan Goodwin (The Daredevil), James More (The Deceptionist), and Raymond Crowe (The Unusualist), are set to join returning audience favorites Yu Ho-Jin (The Manipulator), Jeff Hobson (The Trickster), Dan Sperry (The Anti-Conjurer), and Adam Trent (The Futurist).

The Illusionists — Live on Broadway, which is described as "fast-paced" and "wildly entertaining," broke box office records when it made its Broadway debut last year. Following its Broadway engagement, the production will resume its North American tour.
