While YouTube may have taught us random skills like squirrel waterskiing, Shin Lim honed his talents on the video platform to become a world-class magician.
His card manipulation routines are unmatched in their precision and grace. Lim’s act goes beyond simple card tricks – through meticulous choreography and sleight of hand, he creates stunning visual spectacles that seem to defy physics. You’ll witness Lim’s legendary dexterity up-close as he makes cards appear, vanish, and transform seemingly at will.
Lim first caught the magic world’s eye by fooling the legendary duo Penn & Teller on their show. But his big break came when he won season 13 of America’s Got Talent, wowing the judges with innovative card magic never before seen on the show. He cemented his fame by returning to win America’s Got Talent: The Champions, proving his first victory was no fluke.
That’s right, he won America’s Got Talent twice. TWICE.
Heralded as “one of the most astonishing illusionists ever”, “The #1 Sleight of Hand Artist in the World”, and “the new superstar of Las Vegas magicians,” his show has been a hit over the years he performed at The Mirage.
Despite the hotel’s shutdown, his show is still alive and well. These days, he’s performing his all-new show at The Palazzo Theatre (at The Venetian Resort).
We attended the show’s opening night and were pleasantly surprised to find a much larger theater room (compared to the original show), all new special guests, and even never-before-seen tricks!
Throughout the entire show, we were completely baffled by how he was doing ANY of his tricks. Even now, we’re confused by how it was all possible?!?!
With a healthy mix of card magic, epic (and quite astonishing) sleight-of-hand, aerial acrobatics, and even some mentalism, we’re happy to say this show is 100% worth the hype.
