His new show debuts at the Palazzo Theatre at Venetian in Oct. 2024.<\/p>\n<p>Apparently, Lim and his team decided to move as small a distance as possible, as Mirage is about 125 feet away from Venetian.

We haven\u2019t seen his show at Mirage, but the chances of completely \u201creimagining\u201d the show is a bit of an exaggeration for marketing purposes. You don\u2019t just learn a bunch of new techniques is took years to perfect. You can shuffle them a little, of course, but that\u2019s not \u201cnew.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Still, here is some of Shin Lim\u2019s prestidigitatorial perfection, in many cases baffling to even the most experienced magicians.<\/p>\n<div class=\"arve\" data-mode=\"normal\" data-oembed=\"1\" data-provider=\"youtube\" id=\"arve-youtube-zmvjnliidp4667c9bcec1a01777383080\" style=\"max-width:900px;\">\n<span class=\"arve-inner\"><br \/><span class=\"arve-embed arve-embed--has-aspect-ratio\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 500 \/ 281\"><br \/><span class=\"arve-ar\" style=\"padding-top:56.200000%\"\/><iframe allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" class=\"arve-iframe fitvidsignore\" data-arve=\"arve-youtube-zmvjnliidp4667c9bcec1a01777383080\" data-src-no-ap=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/ZMvjNlIiDp4?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"505.8\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-presentation allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/ZMvjNlIiDp4?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" width=\"900\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<\/span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>There will be a new set, so there\u2019s that. The Palazzo Theatre will also get a refresh in honor of Lim\u2019s residency. Yes, they spell it \u201ctheatre,\u201d so it sounds fancier.<\/p>\n<p>Lim opened at Mirage in May 2019, and now boasts more than 800 performances under his belt. Which sounds much dirtier than it really is.<\/p>\n<p>Rumor has it Lim considered changing the name of his show to something other than \u201cLimitless,\u201d but nixed the idea because it has his fricking name in it. The other options, \u201cLimberness,\u201d \u201cLimpness,\u201d \u201cLimousine,\u201d \u201cLimerick\u201d and \u201cLimbless,\u201d didn\u2019t have the same pizazz. We loved \u201cLimburger,\u201d but apparently it was deemed too cheesy.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, back to things we didn\u2019t completely make up.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s Shin Lim\u2019s appearance on \u201cPenn and Teller Fool Us.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"arve\" data-mode=\"normal\" data-oembed=\"1\" data-provider=\"youtube\" id=\"arve-youtube-ean-pwrfjca667c9bcec215f829828146\" style=\"max-width:900px;\">\n<span class=\"arve-inner\"><br \/><span class=\"arve-embed arve-embed--has-aspect-ratio\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 500 \/ 281\"><br \/><span class=\"arve-ar\" style=\"padding-top:56.200000%\"\/><iframe loading=\"lazy\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen=\"\" class=\"arve-iframe fitvidsignore\" data-arve=\"arve-youtube-ean-pwrfjca667c9bcec215f829828146\" data-src-no-ap=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/EAN-PwRfJcA?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"505.8\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-presentation allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\" scrolling=\"no\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube-nocookie.com\/embed\/EAN-PwRfJcA?feature=oembed&amp;iv_load_policy=3&amp;modestbranding=1&amp;rel=0&amp;autohide=1&amp;playsinline=0&amp;autoplay=0\" width=\"900\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n<\/span><br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Shin Lim has done an impressive job of drawing audiences, said to be more than a million people during his Mirage run, doing mostly card tricks, or close-up magic.<\/p>\n<p>Close-up magic can be swallowed up by large stages, and watching a live show on a video screen isn\u2019t all that appealing to us, personally. (Note that Penn and Teller are watching Lim on a monitor despite the fact he\u2019s just a few feet away.)<\/p>\n<p>Oh, all right, we\u2019ll see the show at Venetian so we have some idea what we\u2019re talking about. For once.<\/p>\n<p>We\u2019re glad Shin Lim so seamlessly found a new place to ply his craft.
