Geffen StayHouse presents “The Present”

WORLD PREMIERE of The Present.

Written & Performed by Helder Guimarães

Directed by Frank Marshall

May 7 – June 7, 2020

Purchase tickets here.

The Present is inspired by Helder Guimarães’ own life experience with quarantine during childhood. Using his signature mind-bending illusions, Guimarães recalls the funny, moving, and ultimately illuminating lessons he learned when he least expected them, and shares this story with us at a time when we need it most.

This new production will take place virtually via Zoom with a maximum of 25 households per show. In a unique twist, The Present will provide both a virtual and physical experience, as magic will also take place in your own hands, from the comfort of your own home.
