The Clairvoyants Christmas
<p>America’s Got Talent finalists and World Champions of Mentalism, The Clairvoyants, are thrilled to announce their 2019 US Christmas Tour. The holiday-themed show will feature illusions performed by the duo that will be sure to get audiences in the Christmas spirit.</p><p>“We cannot wait to celebrate the most magical time of the year with our audience,” Thommy Ten and Amélie van Tass shared. “We will spend an unforgettable evening together. Get ready to experience the miracle of Christmas in your hearts and minds.”</p><p> </p><p>When Amélie van Tass and Thommy Ten met in October 2011, they began to develop their "second sight" act, and two months later brought it on stage for the first time. Within a year, they had developed a full length show. Shortly thereafter, they started touring Europe.</p><p>In 2014, they received their first long term contract in America. After a six month run in the show "The Illusionarium," they were offered a featured spot in the largest touring magic show in the world, “The Illusionists.”</p><p>In 2016, they decided to take part in the biggest talent show in the world, “America’s Got Talent.” After four months, six different performances and over 100,000 contestants, America voted them second place. In October 2016, they appeared, together with winner Grace Vanderwaal, at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas. More recently, in early 2019, they were personally invited to compete in the AGT spinoff, America’s Got Talent: The Champions, wowing the judges with every performance. Being part of not one, but two highly successful TV shows has been another major step in the evolution of their career.</p><p>A highlight of their career was the opportunity to perform their show at the Sydney Opera House. In winter 2016, they experienced another career highlight, headlining the show “The Illusionists - Turn of the Century” in the Palace Theatre in New York City, on Broadway. The show was the best selling magic show in Broadway history.</p><p>Van Tass and Ten were awarded “The German Champions of Mentalism,” “Magicians of the Year 2015,” and, also in 2015, were enthusiastically chosen as the “World Champions of Mentalism,” a prize that hasn't been awarded in 30 years.</p><p>In April 2017, the Academy of Magical Arts and The Magic Castle Hollywood awarded Thommy Ten & Amélie van Tass "Stage Magicians of the Year 2016" for their extraordinary art.</p><p>Thommy Ten and Amélie van Tass continue to appear with their full length show in America and Europe and perform for corporate events worldwide. In beginning of 2019, they appeared twice on NBC's new show America's Got Talent: The Champions.</p>
