About the Show

The Tank NYC presents this autobiographical tale of “boy meets magic kit/boy becomes magician,” packed with pitfalls, triumph and adventure.

'Gathering the Magic' is a solo performance event in which master magician Nelson Lugo combines slice-of-life storytelling with sophisticated stage magic to produce an extraordinary theatrical experience. In the style of NPR's 'The Moth' combined with classic turn-of-the-century magic, Nelson Lugo lures his audience into an intricate web of pop cultural influences and life lessons as he presents magic in a whole new way.
