Impossible | A great success!

The magic show ‘Impossible’ that has dazzled audiences all summer has been a great success!

Jamie Hendry, the producer of IMPOSSIBLE, London’s most dangerous magic and illusion show, has revealed that it has recouped its West End costs of £950,000 in just over one month, during its run at the Noël Coward Theatre.

It has been several decades since a magic show of this scale has run in the West End, and
bumper audiences over the busy summer period have driven the box office to even greater levels than had been anticipated. The London season will come to an end on Saturday 29th August, having played 41 performances.

“Impossible was a hugely high-risk show to produce and I’m delighted for everyone involved that it has proved to be a
commercial success story so quickly. It’s always deeply satisfying to produce work that captures the public’s attention and I’m thrilled to have created such an exciting and unique show that has put live magic firmly back into the West End. As a young boy I remember being enchanted by magic and it’s been so rewarding to see audiences of all ages leaving full of wonder and amazement. Impossible has managed to very quickly find its place in the crowded market of musicals and plays, and by its nature delivered one of the most spectacular shows you can see on a London stage. I am thrilled that we will be announcing plans for our UK and Worldwide tour very shortly and look forward to bringing Impossible back to the capital next year.” – Producer Jamie Hendry

 

IMPOSSIBLE fuses escapology, mind-reading, sleight-of-hand and disappearance, as well as bringing some traditional tricks up to date by using contemporary technologies such as iPads and lasers.
