Review content:
I recently visited Steven Spill's Magicopolis in Santa Monica, California. His vision for a first rate magic theater is now in its 11th year. As you'll see, I thoroughly enjoyed Spill's "Escape Reality" stage show and found that he's made some significant changes to his venue that makes a great experience even better.
