"Abandoning the antiquated notions of a traditional magic show, Nothing to Hide takes the audience on an imaginary journey through a series of diverse and engaging vignettes brought to life solely from the words and hands of the two masterful magicians," according to the Geffen.

"I dare say, watching Derek and Helder perform together was one of the most amazing, confounding, and magical nights of my life," actor Harris said of their earlier appearance at Magic Castle in L.A. "I knew after seeing the reaction from Magic Castle guests and magicians alike that I needed to bring their show to a larger audience. I suspect it will be a tough ticket to get and those that do will have their minds utterly blown."

Nothing to Hide, which will have special late-night performances on Fridays and Saturdays throughout the run, plays Geffen's intimate Audrey Skirball Kenis Theater.

The show launches Geffen Playhouse's new Spotlight Series, which is inspired by the success of past smaller events ranging from Alan Cumming's I Bought a Blue Car Today to Ricky Jay's 52 Assistants and concerts from Sergio Mendes to Rita Wilson.

This "special series which will provide access to exclusive events including cabarets, readings, magic acts and concerts," according to Geffen. "Unlike our regular season, Spotlight events will vary in length, format and lead-time, but similar to our traditional season, they will always bring something entertaining, noteworthy and world-class to our audiences." Nothing to Hide is created by Derek DelGaudio and Helder Guimarães, and written by DelGaudio. Harris, the actor known for Broadway (Proof, Assassins, The Tony Awards host), film ("The Smurfs") and TV ("Doogie Howser, M.D.," "How I Met Your Mother"), directs.
