Penn & Teller inducted into Magic Circle after 50 years

News summary

Penn & Teller, the renowned American magic duo known for their unconventional style and revealing some magic secrets, have been inducted into The Magic Circle, the prestigious British magic society, after 50 years of rejection. The induction, which is the society's highest honour, took place on the steps of the London Palladium during their 50th anniversary West End residency. Despite their past criticism for exposing magical secrets, Magic Circle President Marvin Berglas praised them as "the kings" of originality, creativity, and showmanship, highlighting their artistic performances that surprise audiences with entirely original methods. The Magic Circle, founded in 1905, is a global society of 1,750 magicians, illusionists, and mentalists who pass a stringent exam to join, including notable members like King Charles III. Penn & Teller expressed their honour at finally becoming members despite having violated the society's cardinal rule of not revealing secrets for decades. Their induction symbolizes a broader acceptance of diverse and creative approaches within the magic community.
