Illusions & Magic

Young & Strange, the renowned comedy illusion duo from London’s West End, require a massive 44-foot long tractor trailer to transport their elaborate magic and illusion setups to The Park Theatre in Jaffrey, New Hampshire for their show this Saturday, September 18 at 2 PM. Jaffrey is the second stop on their 2025 North American tour of 44 towns across the U.S. and Canada.

This vehicle is essential to accommodate the vast array of equipment, props, and special effects needed for their performance. Their show features large-scale illusions that demand not only space but also a sophisticated setup to bring their magic to life on stage. The logistics of moving such a spectacle are as intricate as the illusions themselves, ensuring that every detail from the smallest trick to the grandest illusion is executed with precision and flair.

Young & Strange have earned their title as England's number one magicians through a combination of innovative magic, comedic timing, and unforgettable performances. Originating from Oxford, Richard Young and Sam Strange have been friends since childhood, bonding over their mutual passion for magic. They began their journey attempting to replicate Las Vegas style illusions with humble materials like cardboard and tape, which has since evolved into a sophisticated act that has toured globally. Their performances have been described as "dazzling" and "unforgettable," with critics and audiences alike lauding their ability to blend humor with magic seamlessly. Penn Jillette of Penn & Teller fame has said, "That secret kept quiet for the rest of your lives will make you one of the best magic acts the world has ever seen," highlighting their prowess in the art. Their shows are a testament to their skill in creating original magic that leaves spectators in awe, laughing, and questioning reality, making them a must-see act in the world of magic and comedy
