When the curtain rises at the Straz Center’s Jaeb Theater this spring, Tampa won’t just witness a performance—it will step into a dimension where reality bends, illusions dance, and wonder is palpable. Jamie Allan’s Amaze, the focus keyword, is not just a magic show—it’s a revolution in illusion, a symphony of sorcery and science that has electrified audiences across the globe. And now, for two unmissable weeks, this international sensation is bringing his genius to Tampa.
A Technological Masterclass in the Art of Illusion
Set in the intimate Jaeb Theater at Straz Center, “Amaze” offers more than tricks—it delivers a full-blown immersion into the magical unknown. From Wednesday, April 30 through Sunday, May 11, attendees will have 16 chances to experience Jamie Allan’s sorcery up close. This tight-knit venue is not just a stage—it’s a portal, giving fans a front-row seat to levitation, digital illusions, and mind-bending moments that challenge physics.
Jaeb Theater, with its close-quarter design, becomes the perfect crucible for Allan’s brand of magic. The intimacy intensifies the illusion, turning skeptics into believers, and every whisper, flick of the wrist, and twist of time feels dangerously real.
Amaze: The Show That Dares to Break the Rules
Don’t expect rabbits or top hats—this is Jamie Allan, a man who fuses state-of-the-art tech, cinematic storytelling, and timeless sleight of hand to redefine what magic means. In “Amaze,” the audience doesn’t just watch—they become part of the enchantment. Magic doesn’t happen on stage. It happens all around you.
Forget what you know about traditional performances. This is about levitating bodies, glitches in reality, and technology-driven illusions that feel eerily possible. It’s where drones take the place of doves and holograms stand shoulder-to-shoulder with human shadows.
Worldwide Phenomenon, Local Stage
Jamie Allan isn’t just a magician—he’s an architect of awe, a global pioneer known for smashing box office records and selling millions in tickets. From London to Las Vegas, his shows have left audiences spellbound. Now, his spotlight shines on Tampa’s cultural core, and every performance of “Amaze” is expected to leave jaws unhinged.
As described by the Chicago Tribune, “Amaze is ‘a masterclass in magic performance’ and ‘a luminous way to spend an evening.’” Allan’s command of stage, story, and scientific spectacle offers a rare fusion of thrill and thought, where disbelief isn’t just suspended—it’s shattered.
Accessible, Astonishing, and Absolutely Unmissable
Tickets start at just $45.83, making this otherworldly event surprisingly attainable. Book now at www.strazcenter.org, call 813.229.7827, or visit the Ticket Sales Office to secure your seat.

For families, thrill-seekers, and those who crave a brush with the impossible, “Amaze” is more than a show—it’s an unforgettable encounter with magic itself.
Live the Story, Experience the Magic
Step into a world where technology pulses with enchantment, where shadows defy logic, and where you are the magician’s accomplice. This isn’t just about seeing. It’s about believing the unbelievable. Jamie Allan’s “Amaze” isn’t coming to Tampa to perform. He’s coming to rewrite reality.
