OUR STORY

When Andrew Evans moved to a new apartment in 2013, he imagined more than summer BBQs on his patio.

After moving to San Francisco’s Mission/Bernal neighborhood in 2013, Andrew had an idea for his back patio. He began building an elaborate, 45-person theater complete with a secret entrance, a bar, and a box office that doubled as his bedroom.

 

With a 10-person creative team, The Magic Patio put on performances on the outdoor patio for 5 consecutive years, becoming San Francisco’s most sought-after magic experience.

In January 2019, The Magic Patio moved into a new, indoor home just down the block. It had its opening night in June of that year.

The Patio continues to host sold-out performances in its new space. In March 2020, performances (temporarily) shifted to fully digital experiences in the form of private shows and public livestreams.

We’re thrilled to be welcoming back live, in-person audiences to experience world-class magic right in our own backyard (so to speak).
