(Telegraph.co.uk) - In an empty theatre at the back of the Rio...I
meet an earnest, balding man who talks in an animated whisper about
beauty, and quotes Poe and Sondheim until he moves himself to tears.

This is Teller (he long ago dispensed with his given name, Raymond)
a prodigiously talented 62-year-old magician who is coming next
week to London where he and his partner Penn Jillette, a 6ft 6in
pony-tailed comedian seven years his junior, will perform for five
nights at the Hammersmith Apollo. Together the two men comprise one
of the greatest anomalies in modern Vegas.

�We absolutely don�t belong here,� admits Penn later, sitting in
his dressing room. �When we first came to Vegas it was considered a
total joke.� That was nine years ago. Today they perform to
enthusiastic crowds, six nights a week, 46 weeks of the year in a
vast theatre that bears their names, raking in more money than
either can quite fathom...
