Kilburn Media announced today the launch of Road Show Theatrical, a joint venture with The Production Office to produce and fully finance live theatrical productions. The announcement was made today by Kilburn's CEO Mark Manuel and The Production Office's Managing Partner Gregory Young. The long term goal of Road Show Theatrical is to build a well-financed and trusted destination for live theatrical projects, much the same way feature film projects currently make their way to Kilburn Media.


The first project to be financed by Road Show Theatrical is THE ILLUSIONISTS - Witness the Impossible, a mind-blowing spectacular that showcases seven of the most incredible Illusionists on earth. From producers Simon Painter, Tim Lawson and Magicspace Entertainment
THE ILLUSIONISTS - Witness the ImpossibleTM has shattered box office records across the globe and dazzles audiences of all ages with a powerful mix of the most outrageous and astonishing acts ever to be seen on stage.

The U.S. inaugural run will debut at the Marquis Theater on Broadway and run from Wednesday, Nov. 26, 2014 - Sunday January 4, 2015.

"This is an exciting expansion of the business model of Kilburn Media into live theatrical productions," said Manuel. "It further develops our model as a producer and financier of entertainment content, in all of its various formats."

"For years we have been eager to expand our entertainment expertise to the world of Hollywood, but we want to do it right and most importantly with the right people. We have been fortunate to have found great partners in Kilburn Media," added Young.

The Production Office is a top tier innovative, collaborative artist managing production company who has produced over 30 national and international Broadway theatrical touring shows such as the seasonal Donny & Marie Holiday Tour, the Broadway bound "Mozart," a rock opera acquired while in Paris about Mozart's life, as well as unique Las Vegas music residencies with popular recording artists.

Kilburn Media specializes in innovative financial solutions to the media and entertainment industry. Its privately managed film fund makes debt and equity investments in filmed entertainment.
