Zubrick Magic Theatre

Tucked into a suite on 1st Avenue North in downtown St. Petersburg, the Zubrick Magic Theatre is one of those only-in-St.-Pete experiences that catches visitors completely off guard in the best way. This intimate venue seats a small audience, which means every person in the room gets a close-up view of the action — and trust us, you will want to be paying close attention. Illusionists Chris and Ryan Zubrick put on a 70-minute performance that weaves together jaw-dropping sleight-of-hand, grand-scale illusions, and genuinely funny audience interaction into a show that delights kids and adults alike. The theatre offers shows on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday evenings, with matinee performances on Sundays and select Saturdays, making it easy to work into a day of exploring downtown. Doors open before showtime so you can grab a beer, wine, or snack from the lobby before settling into your seat. With hundreds of glowing reviews from visitors who consistently call it one of the best things they have done in St. Pete, the Zubrick Magic Theatre is the kind of place you tell friends about for months after visiting. It is magic in every sense of the word — intimate, surprising, and genuinely unforgettable.
