In The Magician’s Magician a queer YA author, unknowingly manifesting magic, is set on a quest alongside her greatest fan to heal our dying world, all the while grieving her lost lover… until she discovers there may be a way to bring her back.

Picking up on the heels of Crystal Skillman’s critically acclaimed play “Open,” TMM sees Kristen (sometimes known as ‘The Magician’) struggling to reconcile success in the midst of a pandemic with the ongoing grief of having lost her beloved partner Jenny to a hate crime one year earlier.

Kristen’s first novel (aka “The Magician’s Magician”) has just been released and her agent wants the sequel — stat. Due to a flurry of publicity, she’s gaining fans by the day — including one overzealous and powerful young acolyte, Echo — who has a superfan’s knowledge of the novel and a few tricks up her sleeve.

Kristen struggles to live in the present rather than in the past, via videos and memories of her beloved Jenny. But the past is comforting — and the present is hard…especially when the police come knocking with news of Jenny’s assailants. And once Kristen meets an ambassador from the Society of Magicians — who suggests that aspects of Kristen’s book might not totally be fiction — our heroine is off on a quest stranger than any she could have written… Can Kristen save the day and reunite with her lost love?

Throughout the series, Kristen walks a tightrope between the past, the present, and the ever-unknown future. Marry SyFy’s “The Magicians” with Nightvale’s “Alice isn’t Dead” and you get… “The Magician’s Magician.” A magic-infused, mysterious journey through New York’s five boroughs and into the heart of the American Midwest to rediscover how we process our grief, how we renew ourselves, and who gets to tell the stories that get us there.
