COVER FEATURE
Criss Angel + Alice Cooper: When Rock Magic Hits Las Vegas with GOATs
Two legends. One unprecedented show. Paul Romhany pulls back the curtain on one of the most electrifying magic spectacles to hit the Las Vegas Strip.
If you’ve ever wondered what happens when the dark mystique of rock and roll collides with the art of illusion, this month’s VANISH International Magic Magazine answers that question in spectacular fashion. The cover feature spotlights the groundbreaking Las Vegas collaboration between rock magician Criss Angel and rock and roll icon Alice Cooper — a show unlike anything the magic world has seen before.
Written by Paul Romhany — publisher of The Power of Magical Women and owner of Vanish Press — this deep-dive cover story captures the energy, artistry, and sheer spectacle that only these two legends of performance could create together. If you’ve been sleeping on this show, consider this your wake-up call.
“When rock and roll meets world-class illusion, the result isn’t just a magic show — it’s a cultural moment.”
