The acclaimed stage illusion spectacular has captivated audiences across the globe, bringing magic to life with an explosive mix of high-tech illusions, solo stunts and jaw-dropping spectacles.
For a strictly limited five-week summer season at the iconic London Coliseum, four world-class illusionists will unite as The Horsemen, transforming the magic of the films into a live stage spectacle with never-before-seen feats of wonder.
Collectively, these illusionists have performed thousands of shows in hundreds of cities, including sell-out residencies on Broadway and across Australia, Asia and Las Vegas — leaving audiences spellbound and questioning the very limits of possibility.

### **The history of the London Coliseum**
Opened in 1904, the London Coliseum was designed by legendary theatre architect Frank Matcham with the goal of being “the people’s palace of entertainment.” It was one of the most technically advanced theatres of its time, boasting a revolving stage and a lavishly decorated auditorium.
Originally intended for music hall and variety performances, the Coliseum transitioned into a major venue for film screenings and wartime entertainment before becoming the permanent home of the English National Opera in 1968. Over the years, it has also hosted ballet, plays, and large-scale musicals including Chess, Bat Out of Hell, and Hairspray.
