Illusion Magic Lounge

The venue that houses Illusion Magic Lounge in Santa Monica, California, has been a home to magic for decades. In 1998, Steve Spill and his wife Bozena opened Magicopolis, which they ran for 20 years before Randy Sinnott Sr. went to a show one night. 

“After the show, Steve grabbed me by the elbow and said, ‘Hey, you got a minute?’” Randy told Genii. “I said, ‘Sure.’ And he said, ‘Bozena and I are thinking about retiring to Hawaii. We’d like to keep it as a magic venue, as opposed to a restaurant or a furniture store or something else. It’s a big place.’”
