Asi Wind's Inner Circle

Asi Wind’s Inner Circle has transformed The Judson Theatre into a unique space which The New 
York Times says, “yields an intimacy that makes the effects astonishing from every vantage point.”
The show marks the New York producing debut of David Blaine with whom Asi has worked for 15 
years. Blaine calls Asi his “favorite magician” and says that his act “is certain to have any crowd 
screaming, sometimes crying, and always inspired.” 

CBS Saturday Morning calls him “a magician’s magician” and says, “he touches our souls.”
Penn & Teller, whom Asi fooled on their TV show, “Penn & Teller: Fool Us,” said, “Asi is one of the 
best magicians we’ve ever seen. We love him. He’s great. Go see him.” Watch Asi fool Penn & 
Teller here; that appearance on “Penn & Teller: Fool Us” garnered over 13 million views on 
YouTube, making it one of the most-watched performances in the history of the show.
Enter Asi Wind’s Inner Circle —the most personal magic show audiences have ever experienced. 
The moment they enter the theatre space, they become a part of the show. The unique setting 
intensifies the performance and creates a logic-defying experience that goes beyond magic. 
Audiences are not only witnesses to the magic; they become the magic itself. It is exhilarating, 
mysterious and hilarious. Now is the chance to join Asi Wind’s unforgettable Inner Circle. 
The show’s creative team is John Lovick (Director), Adam Blumenthal (Production Designer) and 
ARCANA (Design Build). Jonathan Zencheck is Production Manager. Along with David Blaine, the 
show is produced by Arny Granat, Michael Cohl, and Winston C. Simone. KGM Theatrical is the 
General Manager. Marketing and Promotions is Leanne Schanzer Promotions (LSP), and Advertising
