THE ILLUSIONISTS will return to Broadway for the third consecutive holiday season for a limited engagement, playing November 25, 2016 through January 1, 2017, and Jinger Leigh, better known as The Conjuress, is counting the days.

One hundred days, to be exactly, until the magical specialist in theatrical elegance starts amazing audiences at the Lunt-Fontanne Theater (205 W 46th St).

Their new show is titled THE ILLUSIONISTS - TURN OF THE CENTURY, designed to transport audiences back to the golden age of magic. THE ILLUSIONISTS - TURN OF THE CENTURY™ is centered in a time when conjurers were the true rock stars of the day. Showcasing the origins of some of the greatest and most dangerous illusions ever built, the show also unveils never-before-seen experiments drawn from a treasure trove of long-forgotten mysteries.

Let the countdown to the golden age of magic begin! 100 days until #TheIllusionists - Turn of the Century opens on #Broadway!

Last year, THE ILLUSIONISTS - LIVE ON BROADWAY broke the record for the highest weekly box office gross ever at the Neil Simon Theatre and recouped in just over six weeks of performances, making it one of just four shows in the 2015-2016 Broadway season to announce earning back its investment. Simultaneously, a West End engagement of THE ILLUSIONISTS broke sales and attendance records at The Shaftesbury Theatre in London. During the 2014-2015 holiday season, THE ILLUSIONISTS - WITNESS THE IMPOSSIBLE recouped in just over three weeks of performances and set weekly gross records at the Marquis Theatre.
