What People Are Saying About Magicopolis

In Short – There's something about seeing a live magic show that doesn't come across on television. Knowing that a magician, not the cameras, is doing the trick. But even in the cozy confines of Magicopolis, figuring out the trick doesn't get any easier--a credit to the lineup of performers here, all of whom are first-rate. Owner-magician Steve Spill is a star in his own right. – –

I was out doing some last minute Christmas shopping when I saw Magicopolis. I have been here before but decided to see what they had for tricks. I didn't play on buying a magic trick, but, when it costs $10 dollars, I thought why not. It turns out the trick was really easy to do and I was able to do it that night for my grandson. Pulling off my thumb doesn’t work for him anymore, but, now I can change a penny into a dime :)
- Pros: Fun and easy magic tricks
- Cons: Driving in Los Angeles
Magic Tricks
by Bobbysteel at Citysearch
I searched all over the place to buy a magic trick for my son and the only thing that comes up in google is Hollywood Magic and they are closed. What happened to all the good ole magic stores where one could come in and see a real person performing magic, then buy the trick that you just saw performed? It is weird that Magicopolis does not come when I search magic tricks in Los Angeles. Thankfully it came up under magic shows and the website was very informative.
The staff was great. The tricks were exciting, fun, and easy to do. Not mention they were also at a good price which must be hard for them to pays the bills I imagine... I still wonder what happened to all the magic stores. Hope they aren't a dying breed. It would be a shame to see this place go.
- Pros: Great service and very knowledgeable staff
- Cons: Limited hours, only 11-6
Worst place in LA
by Angeleno101 at Citysearch
This place was unsanitary, smelled horribly, and the show was not even funny. The staff was completely untalented and the service was horrible. It was a complete waste of time and I would never recommend anyone to waste 2 hours of their time there. I rarely complain but found this to be so memorable (in the worst possible way) that I felt I needed to warn people.
- Pros: None
- Cons: Everything

When to Go:
Keep in mind that Saturday afternoon is birthday-party central, but there's nothing like a slick legerdemain to keep the rambunctious kids hushed.
