On Wednesday night, my friend Woody texted me and was wondering if I had plans. I happened to be completely free so I asked him what was going on. Turned out, he had an extra ticket to “Nothing To Hide” at the Geffen and wanted to see if I wanted to join him!
I was so excited because I really wanted to see that show (but didn’t have the extra money to spend on a ticket). I heard the two stars and Neil Patrick Harris, who directed the show, on the Nerdist podcast recently and it sounded so much fun. Plus, I had never been to the Geffen before!
We met up at the theater in Westwood, where I lucked into a metered parking space right in front of the theater (always a good sign since meters are free after 8pm).
It was a gorgeous night.
As we headed inside, we checked out the poster for the show.
Since my friend got these tickets for free, we wondered where we would end up sitting. I remember reading that there were only about 150 seats in the theater, so there really weren’t going to be bad seats, but since the show is all closeup card magic, I wanted to have great seats.
And we did.
You can see the table where most of the magic took place in that picture. We were in the third row, right in the center! We couldn’t have hoped for better seats!
The show was amazing! I had seen some great magic at The Magic Castle, but this was incredible. There was audience involvement, but that made the magic even more impressive! I don’t want to say too much because the element of surprise makes it that much better. So if you live in the LA area, I highly recommend checking out the show before it closes at the end of the month.
After the show, Woody and I got a picture with the two stars.
Sorry for the not-so-great photo. The guy who volunteered to take it didn’t know how to use an iPhone.
I had an amazing night out with a great friend! Thanks again Woody for inviting me as your plus one!
