Atlas Obscura presents See/Saw, an evening with performer and award-winning magician Siegfried Tieber. Opening on Thursday, September 14, 2017 and running for four weeks, Tieber will play host, historian, and illusionist as he guides intimate audiences on an unconventional journey. An immersion into a magician's mind, See/Saw is an invitation to take a closer look at the art of conjuring with playing cards: a contemporary take on an ancient art form, where the important question isn't how, but why. This limited engagement will take place at Civic Center Studios in Downtown Los Angeles. Our host's ambition is to share (and infect us with) his passion for a beautiful but often misunderstood art form.
