Magic Man
Derek DelGaudio performed his extraordinary, nearly indescribable magic show, In & Of Itself, 560 times in New York and Los Angeles, often in front of an audience of rapt bold-faced names. Stephen Colbert, for one, was so captivated that he coproduced a film version, which debuts on Hulu on Friday. As Devin Gordon writes in his interview with DelGaudio, “We’ve been conditioned to believe that stage magic means deception, keeping secrets—but In & Of Itself is a radical attempt to teach us the opposite.”
