Produced by the creative team behind The Illusionists, the world’s best-selling touring magic show, The Magic of Adam Trent is part of the Ridgefield Magazine Broadway & Cabaret Series and Ridgefield Academy Family Series with support from Hamlet Hub and partially underwritten by Westy Self Storage.

Showcasing his “futuristic” brand of magic, Trent has mesmerized live audiences around the globe, in person and as a featured guest on “America’s Got Talent,” “The Today Show,” “Ellen,” “Rachael Ray Show” and Disney Channel among countless other TV appearances including starring in his own 10-episode TV series “The Road Trick” on Netflix. Trent inaugurated the first two years of The Illusionists record-breaking Broadway runs, which served as a launching pad for his own live show and tour. As one of the original Broadway stars, Adam Trent has emerged and teamed up with The Illusionists producers to present a headline illusion show with scale and mass appeal not seen since the touring days of David Copperfield. Returning to his roots as a solo headliner, Trent brings his hits from the Broadway show along with never before seen material.
