Hi, I'm at the Ethelberry Martyr going to watch
0:03
El Mago Pop and to find out what it's all about. See you soon! It's a magic show, like at birthday parties, but way cooler
0:32
I would say it is full of illusions and mind-blowing magic tricks
0:41
I have not seen a live magic show before. This was my first time and I think it was a really fun and unique experience
0:48
No, I have never seen a live magic show like this because it's like you never know his next move
0:55
You're amazed by his talent and it's just insane how he does it
1:02
So, he basically levitated one time and he also like did this trick like many times
1:11
where he like got in like a cage and he said one, two, three, they dropped the curtains
1:19
the person was gone, they lifted up the curtains again, they did the same thing and then they appeared
1:26
I think that one of the coolest tricks he did was when he switched places with one of his assistants
1:35
and it was really intricate and surprising. He used his helpers and the audience for numbers
1:43
watch, ring, driver's license. He took someone's driver's license and guessed the number
1:53
while using cards, which is crazy. He spinned a ring into like a sealed cup, which was also crazy
2:05
I was, I think like the whole audience was stumped because they had like a live video camera
2:12
where they made sure there was like no editing, no like special effects
2:19
It was like the whole audience was stumped for how he did it
2:24
The tricks are really hard to understand, but it was a lot of fun trying to figure them out
2:32
I think that a lot of kids would enjoy El Maga Pop, especially kids who would like to be part of the trick
2:38
It was so, so amazing. I think kids will enjoy El Maga Pop
2:44
because he is an incredible illusionist and when he was a kid, a guy pulled a coin out of his ear
2:50
and he was inspired because of him and now he's an amazing illusionist
2:56
and I think kids would like it to see what he's become now. You can see El Maga Pop on Broadway at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre
3:04
Check back later for more from Broadway World's KCritics. I found a coin! Bye
