A collection of our favorite reviews from professional news sources.
"The tricks themselves go from classic card sleights to sleek, modern illusions. Bodies levitate, vanish, and reappear just feet from your seat; smartphones become portals; Rubik’s Cubes and puzzles defy logic; and cards sync perfectly (and poetically) with iconic pop songs … Amaze is a theatrical memoir wrapped in magic, certainly a unique experience"

"Allan isn’t simply performing magic, which he does to perfection, but is telling a story—one that proves sweetly sentimental and touching."

We were beyond Amazed with this show!
"This show exceded our expectations by a lot, it is not your typical magic show, it takes you down memory lane (for us 80's and 90's kids) but it is perfect for all ages. The magic tricks blew our minds and the interaction with the audience is amazing!
It should be considered a must when visiting NYC!
Congratulations!!!"
