our lineup philosophy
The Magic Lab is a curated open stage focused on access, community, and audience experience.
​
Performers interested in joining a lineup should attend a show, introduce themselves, and stay engaged with the community. Lineups are curated intentionally to balance variety, diversity, and strong show flow.
​​
Local performers of all experience levels are welcome and encouraged to participate. Out-of-state performers appear as guest headliners by invitation only, allowing us to maintain high-quality closing acts while prioritizing opportunities for the local magic community. If you're out-of-state and interested in performing at the Lab, shoot us an email (contact@bostonmagiclab.com).
​
Reliability, preparedness, and respectful collaboration are essential for all performers and help ensure a great experience for everyone involved.
