Armando Lucero // Maestro (1/24-25)
Multiple dates and times
69 Atlantic, 11201
Description
January 24th & 25th @ 7:15pm & 9:30pm
Armando Lucero is a living legend in the world of sleight of hand. Sixty years of practice and innovation have polished his craft to a mirror shine. Each piece he performs shimmers with fractal-like beauty—the closer you look, the more impossible it becomes.
This style of magic transcends language because Armando is a choreographer at heart. His intimate compositions are often set to music. His velvet pad becomes a grand stage and his nimble fingers seem to dance across the table minting coinage from thin air.
Armando's famous "matrix" routine—an intricate ballet of paper and silver—is so stunning, it earned him a first-class ticket to perform on the iconic variety showcase Le Plus Grand Cabaret Du Monde in Paris. Invitations to appear on hit television programs all across Japan and China soon followed. His reputation grew and grew. Today, dedicated young sleight of hand artists from around the world fly to Las Vegas to study at the side of the maestro.
This is a rare opportunity to watch Armando perform for the public in New York. The few video clips available online are enough to convince anyone that his distinct visual style is candy for the eye. But, when viewed on a screen, Armando's "perceptual engineering" is too easy to dismiss as camera tricks. Live and in person, from mere inches away, you will be forced to reckon with the fact that in the presence of Armando Lucero, you simply cannot believe what you see.
Armando Lucero will perform Maestro January 24th & 25th at 7:15pm and 9:30pm.
Seating is limited to 18. Complimentary wine is curated by our friends at Popina.
