MAGOMIGUE

We pay good money to people who can trick us. We long for the impossible, and what Miguel Puga does is impossible, but there it is.

Spanish magician Miguel Puga merges music and illusion in a crowd-pleasing show.

t’s a short, sweet magic show where the assistant doesn’t mutely stand at the magician’s side in a sequined suit but plays a grand piano instead.

The piano gets equal billing in Miguel Puga and Miguel Aparicio’s show Concerto for Piano & Pasteboards, being presented in the opening days of Luminato. But this is really all about 90 minutes of Puga’s magic tricks, not the art of the keyboard.
