Lake has performed in over 60 countries. He was a quarter-finalist on America’s Got Talent in 2018. He has also acted as a creative consultant and illusion designer for multiple Broadway shows, including Disney’s Aladdin. He has consulted with Walt Disney Imagineering.

“I’ve been performing magic my entire life, and it has always been my greatest dream to perform my show on Broadway,” said Lake in a statement. “Like so many people around the world, I grew up with The Muppets. To work with them and create new illusions for them to appear in my show has been the most rewarding and surprisingly familiar moment. It’s like I have known them my entire life.” (via Playbill.com)

Quenqua said Glass Half Full’s Gareth Lake said, “After years of touring the world, we are so excited that Broadway audiences will finally get to marvel at the exceptional talents of Rob Lake. Pairing his mind-blowing illusions with The Muppets and their singular classic humor is truly a dream come true—for all of us!”
