Theatre of Magic is a 1995 pinball machine designed by John Popadiuk, produced by the Midway division of Williams (under the Bally brand name). The player assumes the role of a novice magician who must develop their skills by exploring the titular theatre and performing an assortment of stage illusions to become a master magician. It was originally designed as "The Magic of David Copperfield", but was changed after Midway and Copperfield were unable to reach an agreement concerning the use of his name and likeness. Coincidentally Capcom also released a magic-themed pinball table, Pinball Magic, in 1995.
