The Hope Theory is a critically acclaimed solo show in which an ordinary immigrant transforms into 'a master of illusion'. It is not a magic trick but a story that 'proves hope is more than an illusion'. The show is written and performed by Helder Guimarães and directed by Academy Award-winning producer Frank Marshall. It makes its New York premiere in a strictly limited engagement.
