Swedish street magicians and illusionists Peter Brynolf and Jonas Ljung are joined by Penn and Teller at the May 15 performance of their Off-Broadway show Stalker, currently running at New World Stages.
A 90-minute magic show created and performed by Brynolf and Ljung, Stalker features a combination of street magic, illusions, and "physical mentalism." The production premiered in Sweden and toured the country from 2021–2022.
Stalker has been supported behind the scenes by Penn and Teller since the beginning. The duo had the following to say in a previous statement: “Brynolf and Ljung had us at ‘hallå’ with their mind-bending magic on our TV show. Now, we’re joining forces with them to unleash Stalker in New York City. We’re truly excited to join this spellbinding spectacle.”
With direction by Edward Af Sillén (Eurovision), the Stalker creative team also includes lighting designer Jamie Roderick and sound designer Drew Levy. General management is by KGM Theatrical, and production management is by Tinc Productions.
Brynolf and Ljung had their international breakthrough on Britain's Got Talent in 2012, before launching their Swedish TV series Brynolf & Ljung—Street Magic, which ran 2015-2017.
