The international illusion phenomenon Now You See Me Live will make its UK premiere at the London Coliseum this summer.
The high-tech stage spectacular runs for five weeks from Friday 31 July to Sunday 6 September 2026.
Inspired by Lionsgate’s hit film franchise, Now You See Me Live has already impressed audiences in Australia and Singapore, including a sold-out season at the Sydney Opera House.
Producers promise a blend of cutting-edge magic, large-scale illusions and astonishing solo feats delivered by a world-class ensemble inspired by the film’s Four Horsemen.
Creative Producer Simon Painter said: “Now You See Me Live pushes the boundaries of stage magic to the absolute edge, making the impossible possible in front of your very eyes. Together we’ve created a show with truly mind-blowing artistry at epic scale, and we can’t wait for London audiences to experience the magic – live!”
Executive Producer Tim Lawson added: “It is thrilling to be presenting the UK premiere of Now You See Me Live at the magnificent London Coliseum, originally built as one of London’s largest and most luxurious family variety theatres. We’re looking forward to continuing this tradition and dazzling audiences of all ages over summer.”
Jenefer Brown, Lionsgate’s President of Global Products & Experiences, said: “Now You See Me Live is captivating audiences with its sleek, contemporary illusions and sharp wit, all inspired by the film franchise’s Horsemen. This exhilarating production offers mind-bending magic on a cinematic scale, and I am thrilled for its London debut this summer.”
Now You See Me Live is created and produced by Simon Painter and Adam Trent, with Tim Lawson as Executive Producer, and creative direction from Ash Jacks McCready, Kirsty White and illusion director Enzo Wenye.
