If you’re looking for a one-of-a-kind night right here in our very own city, the Magic Hideaway is a must do experience that will not disappoint. This boutique two-hour magic show recently opened at the iconic Casa Monica Resort & Spa and every weekend since has had audiences falling off their chairs in laughter and in awe.
The Magic Hideaway was created by Magician Bill Abbott and his wife, Rebecca, who moved to St. Augustine from Toronto four years ago knowing that the Oldest City would be the place to bring Bill’s lifelong dream of creating an upscale, intimate magic show to reality. Bill, who was named Canadian Magician of the Year, and has created magic illusions and effects for “America’s Got Talent” and “The Steve Harvey Show” as well as networks and stream.ing services such as Disney, Netflix, FOX, and NBC, has performed over 5,000 shows in 11 countries around the world. “The best shows are always the ones in intimate settings where I am able to interact with guests and create a magical environment,” explains Bill. “That is what Rebecca and I have created here.”
Once guests arrive at the Casa Monica, they choose from a menu of complimentary magic-themed cocktails and Bill entertains with a sleight of hand pre-show before everyone is ushered into the Magic Hideaway showroom. Styled after a vintage jazz club, the showroom is a 22-seat venue featuring glowing crystal balls, a Moroccan chandelier, majestic palms and carefully arranged seating so everyone is within touching distance of the magic. Once the houselights dim, Bill takes the stage to per.form one of the most intimate magic shows in the world featuring interactive, mind-bending illusions that will leave you in amazement.
