Penn Jillette of Penn & Teller calls him “one of the greatest living magicians.” The New York Times has dubbed him “the soft-spoken conceptualist of sorcery.” And on Friday, September 12 at 7:30pm, world-renowned illusionist Peter Samelson brings an extraordinary evening of close-up magic to Catskill’s Bridge Street Theatre.

Performed in BST’s intimate Speakeasy Space, “Peter Samelson: Close-Up Magic” offers audiences the rare chance to experience sleight-of-hand, illusion, and wonder mere inches from where they’re seated. Samelson, recipient of the Merlin Award for Lifetime Achievement, blends artistry and storytelling into performances that are as thought-provoking as they are jaw-dropping. Seating is extremely limited, so advance reservations are highly encouraged.

Tickets are $25 for adults and $15 for ages 18 and under, available at bridgest.org/peter-samelson-close-up-magic. This event is recommended for audiences ages 12 and up. Don’t miss this one-night-only chance to see one of magic’s true masters up close and personal in the heart of Catskill.
