About

Penn Jillette and Raymond Joseph Teller, known professionally as Penn & Teller, began their collaboration in 1975, performing their first show together at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival on August 19. From the late 1970s through 1981, they performed as a trio called “The Asparagus Valley Cultural Society.” Following the departure of their third member, Weir Chrisemer, Penn Jillette and Teller continued as a duo, transitioning to a new show titled “Mrs. Lonsberry’s Seance of Horror.” By 1985, their unique act, which combines magic with comedic elements and a focus on scientific skepticism, started gaining wider recognition, including positive reviews for their Off-Broadway show and an Emmy Award-winning PBS special, “Penn & Teller Go Public.” This early success laid the groundwork for their extensive career in entertainment.

Throughout the late 1980s and 1990s, Penn & Teller further established their presence through multiple Broadway runs and numerous television appearances on popular shows including “Late Night with David Letterman,” “Saturday Night Live,” and “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.” Their act frequently incorporates revealing the methods behind magic tricks, a characteristic that differentiates their performances. They have made guest appearances on a variety of television series such as “Babylon 5” (as Rebo and Zooty), “The Drew Carey Show,” “The Bernie Mac Show,” “The West Wing,” and “The Simpsons,” often performing unique magical segments or comedic roles. Their national tours during the 1990s continued to build their audience and critical acclaim.

From 2003 to 2010, Penn & Teller hosted the Showtime television series “Bullshit!”, a program that critically examined various beliefs, practices, and phenomena from a skeptical perspective. This show covered topics ranging from psychics and religion to conspiracy theories and pseudoscientific claims, often reflecting their libertarian viewpoints at the time. Since 2001, they have maintained a long-standing residency in Las Vegas at the Rio All Suite Hotel and Casino, holding the record for the longest-running headliners at the same hotel in Las Vegas history. They have also hosted “Penn & Teller: Fool Us” since 2010, a series where aspiring magicians attempt to fool the duo. Their contributions to magic and entertainment were recognized with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in April 2013, and in 2025, they were inducted into The Magic Circle during their 50th-anniversary residency at the London Palladium, an honor that had previously been denied due to their approach of often revealing how tricks are done.
