Theatre of Magic is a pinball machine designed by John Popadiuk,[1] produced by Midway (under the Bally brand name).
The player assumes the role of a novice magician who must develop their skills by exploring the titular theatre and performing an assortment of stage illusions.
It was originally designed as "The Magic of David Copperfield", but was changed when terms couldn't be agreed with him.
The game presents four primary objectives, each of which must be completed in order to qualify for the "Grand Finale" wizard mode.
If the player shoots the Vanish Lock and then begins Theatre Multiball, a total of four balls are put into play.
