Scott Silven: The Lost Things

Step into a world of breathtaking illusions and unforgettable storytelling as Scottish illusionist Scott Silven invites you to explore the mysterious side of what it means to be human.
The Lost Things is a journey through wonder, memory, and the strange beauty hidden inside the things we lose. Created and performed by celebrated illusionist Scott Silven and directed by Graham McLaren, the show weaves awe-inspiring illusions together with a deeply personal narrative to create something that feels less like a magic show and more like a profound shared experience. Silven believes theatre is where we gather to witness the impossible together, and The Lost Things is built entirely around that belief.
Designed by Jamie Vartan and featuring illusions that have left audiences genuinely speechless, The Lost Things has earned a reputation as one of the most moving and inventive shows of its kind. Arizona Arts Live is a proud co-commissioner of this production, making Tucson part of the story of this remarkable work. This is an evening that will make you look at memory, loss, and the surprising places where wonder lives differently. Recommended for ages 12 and up. Experience Scott Silven live at Marroney Theatre.
