Las Vegas - 1967…

Two young men from Germany, united by a love of magic, spectacle and one extraordinary obsession, arrive in Nevada with almost nothing to their name…

Siegfried and Roy - two showmen that were set to define magic and spectacle for the next five decades…

Every evening they transformed the impossible into entertainment...

Tigers appeared from nowhere.

White lions prowled across the stage.

And night after night, millions watched as two illusionists became global superstars.

But behind the sequins, the headlines and the roaring crowds was a story of ambition, friendship and betrayal.

How did two outsiders build one of the most spectacular and highest earning acts in entertainment history?

Then, in 2003, everything changed.

During a performance at the Mirage, Roy was viciously attacked by one of the show's beloved white tigers. The world watched in shock...

What followed became another chapter in a story that had already defied belief. More unbelievable than their show itself.

Two men.

A lifetime of dreams.

The biggest stage in the world.

And the fine line between illusion and reality.

This is the extraordinary story of Siegfried and Roy.
