Close-up magician Helder Guimarães’ all-new show Verso officially opens Off-Broadway September 28. Guimarães, who specializes in card magic, returns following the success of Nothing to Hide.
Verso, a show billed as “intimate, enigmatic, witty and unorthodox,” began previews September 19 at New World Stages.
“Verso is Helder’s most daunting journey into the impossible yet,” state press notes. “Bear witness as he pushes the very limits of magic, and challenges just how much you’re willing to accept what your eyes assume to be true.”
The show had its world premiere in Portugal earlier this year, with the New York debut marking its American premiere.
Verso is produced in New York by Rodney Rigby, Latitude Link and Eva Price. It is written and performed by Guimarães and features creative direction by Catarina Marques, lighting design by Pedro Vieira de Carvalho, music by Pedro Marques, creative consulting by Kelly Devine and direction by Rodrigo Santos.
