The Conjurors’ Club 2021
2021 | A.R.T.
An intimate and interactive multi-magician experience, performed live nightly.
Created by Vinny DePonto and Geoff Kanick
For the first time in 100 years, the secretive magic society The Conjurors’ Club pulls back the curtain for an interactive experience that redefines the face of modern magic. Take a front-row seat and immerse yourself in the arcane and mysterious with four different magicians. Physical distance can’t keep the amazing mind-reading, reality-bending illusions, and extraordinary transformations from reaching through the screen and directly into your home. As honorary members of the Club, you’ll receive your own secret package for use during your visit that is guaranteed to surprise and delight all of your senses—but you must promise to keep the secrets…
I’m very proud of this project (which started way back in 2015 with a successful Kickstarter!) When the pandemic hit Geoff and I talked about a version of The Conjurors’ Club that would live in a virtual world. This is what we made.
We were able to perform magic online and live for thousands of people all over the world. As well as curate an incredible roster of magicians from all over the world. We’re hoping to bring this event back to a physical space some time in the future.

Bringing magic and illusion into your home, ‘secret package’ and all
In fashioning their live, interactive, online magic show, “The Conjurors’ Club,” creators Vinny DePonto and Geoff Kanick wanted to foster the up-close intimacy and tactile connectivity of pre-pandemic, in-person theater.

When a small band of magicians present The Conjurors’ Club, they will be sticking to the basics, keeping their online presentation as intimate — and as real — as possible. This intimacy is fundamental to what they do. “Without an audience, magic cannot happen. It’s just a person alone in a room doing fancy choreography,” said performer and magician Geoff Kanick, one of the show’s two co-creators.

“The sleight-of-hand maneuvers seem simply impossible and the mind-reading stunts are truly mind-blowing.”
