Seattle Theatre Group Presents PENN & TELLER, 12/10-12

Seattle Theatre Group (STG) presents PENN & TELLER at The Paramount Theatre for three shows only on Friday, December 10 and Saturday, December 11 at 8pm and Sunday, December 12 at 2pm.

Edgy, provocative and hilarious, the PENN & TELLER live show can involve anything from knives and guns to fire and livestock! This show has been a hit on Broadway and in Las Vegas, and returns to Seattle for the first time in 10 years.

For 35 years PENN & TELLER have defied labels - and at times physics - by redefining the genre of magic and inventing their own very distinct niche in comedy and live performance. Known as the "Bad Boys of Magic," as they often reveal secrets to their tricks, they may show you how it's done, but they still manage to leave you startled and amazed.

Acclaimed Showtime series, "Penn & Teller: BS!" has been nominated for 13 Emmy Awards and is the longest-running series in the history of the network. The show tackles the fakes and frauds behind such topics as alien abduction, psychics and bottled water.

Inclusions in The New York Times Crossword Puzzle, and as answers on Jeopardy and Who Wants To Be A Millionaire proves their status as cultural icons and the preeminent duo of magic and comedy.
