Dan White has become New York’s house magician. From guesting on The Tonight Show to his five-year sold-out run at the NoMad hotel, the three-piece-suit-wearing urbane illusionist puts the dapper in abracadabra.

Now The Magician, his intimate show of mentalism, card tricks, and magical whatnot, is back for a limited engagement at Fotografiska.
