Groundhog Day on Broadway

A brand new Tim Minchin musical, based on the cult movie Groundhog Day,  has started performances at the August Wilson Theatre on Broadway. Paul Kieve has collaborated with 7 of his Matilda creative team to create some magical time jumping moments.  The London press said:

Props to the whole creative team, including illusionist Paul Kieve, for achieving the effect of Phil’s constantly resetting days via a multitude of coups de théâtre.   Andrzej Lukowski Time Out

Kieve’s sleight-of-hand abilities to propel Andy Karl’s Phil Connors through different stage locations in the same number is amazing. Mark Shenton, The Stage

Paul Kieve is responsible for some staggering effects.  Paul Bailey, The Age
