Conversations with Penn & Teller: 35 Years of Magic & BS!, an insightful evening of candid discussion, audience Q&A, video clips and some of Penn & Teller's classic magic tricks performed live, comes to the State Theatre in Easton on Tuesday, November 8th, 8 PM.

Tickets at $45 & $35 can be purchased at the State Theatre Box Office, 453 Northampton Street, Easton, by calling 1-800-999-STATE, 610-252-3132 online at www.statetheatre.org. The show is sponsored by WZZO Z-95.

Celebrating 35 years as magic's most outrageous and innovative team, Penn & Teller are Emmy award winning tv stars, best-selling authors and Las Vegas icons. Their Showtime series, "Penn & Teller: BS!" has been nominated for 16 Emmys. Their newest venture, "Penn & Teller Tell a Lie," can be seen every Wednesday at 10 PM on the Discovery Channel.
For 35 years Penn & Teller have defied labels-and at times physics and good taste-- by redefining the genre of magic and inventing their own very distinct niche in comedy. With sold out runs on Broadway, world tours, Emmy-winning TV specials and hundreds of outrageous appearances on everything from Letterman to Leno, Friends to The Simpsons, Chelsea Lately to Top Chef, comedy's only team show no signs of slowing down.

With an amazing six wins, including 2011, as "Las Vegas Magicians of the Year," their 10-year run at The Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino makes them one of the longest running and most-beloved shows in Las Vegas history, outselling every other resident magician on The Strip.

As individuals, they are just as prolific. Teller directed a version of Macbeth that toured the East Coast to raves from The New York Times and Wall Street Journal and has written two books. Penn has written three books, including the 2011 New York Times Best Seller, "God No!", hosted the NBC game show Identity and donned his ballroom shoes for the 2008 season of ABC's hit Dancing With The Stars.
