LAS VEGAS, March 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Penn &
Teller announced today they will return to Rio All-Suite
Hotel & Casino on Thursday, April
22 in their namesake Penn & Teller Theater. The show
will feature all-new content and magic as well as selections from
Penn & Teller's extensive catalog of fan favorites.
"We are so excited to go back to doing what we do, where we do
it, for the people we do it for," said Penn Jillette. "Teller and I
are both more than two weeks out of our second shots, and in the
same bubble, so we can stand unmasked on our stage. We will give up
seeing what we hope are smiling faces so our audience can stay
masked and safe."
Additionally, Penn shared, "We haven't been on stage in over a
year, so we don't know whether the audience will be coming to see
us do miracles, or just to see if we remember which way to face on
stage. But no matter what, we're excited to return to our home at
the Rio!"
Edgy, provocative and hilarious, Penn & Teller have been
captivating live audiences at Rio Las Vegas since 2001 when their
show originally opened. This show will be a culmination of years of
on-stage experience mixed with innovative and creative twists to be
enjoyed by long-time patrons and new fans alike.
"We are thrilled to welcome Penn & Teller back to live
performances at the Rio," said Jason
Gastwirth, President of Entertainment at Caesars
Entertainment. "After a challenging year, the demand for joy and
laughter is higher than ever, and Penn & Teller will certainly
supply that, as they have been doing for decades in the heart of
Las Vegas."
