How much are you willing to sacrifice for your dream? MAGICIANS follows four very different professional magicians on stage and off, exploring how and why these characters so passionately dedicate their lives to the artistry and craft of illusion: from the most humbling of road gigs to the grandest performances on the biggest of stages; to finding love to terrible personal loss; and, most dramatically, to the prospect of losing everything for the one constant in their lives: magic. As we come to understand why each is pursuing his own dream, we'll discover the greatest secret that has been hidden right before our eyes all along: far more fascinating than the magic are the magicians themselves.
