Magicopolis is a 150 seat theater in Santa Monica, California;[1] founded in 1998[2] by magician Steve Spill, and is the permanent home of his magic production, "Escape Reality",[3] which has received positive reviews from guests and critics.[4][5][6][7][8]
Magicians Penn & Teller cast their hands and feet in cement for the Magicopolis groundbreaking ceremony on March 25, 1998 [9] Robert Holbrook, Mayor of the City of Santa Monica, on behalf of the City Council proclaimed March 25 to be "Magicopolis Day" in Santa Monica.[10] Friday the 18th of September 1998 marked the grand opening, and official ribbon cutters and special guest performers, Penn & Teller,[11] took the stage and over the course of the evening performed some of their classic routines. To finish, Penn delivered a "heartfelt discourse on the value of seeing magic performed live and the importance of Magicopolis".[12]
