LAS VEGAS — Illusionists Siegfried and Roy headed back to the stage for a one-night-only comeback performance Saturday, more than five years after a brutal tiger attack ended the careers of the longtime Las Vegas duo.
The charity performance was promoted as “the final bow” for Roy Horn and Siegfried Fischbacher, the German-born showmen responsible for one of the most successful shows in Las Vegas history.
The two had been stage partners for 45 years when a 380-pound Bengal tiger attacked Horn during a live performance and dragged him offstage in front of a stunned audience. Horn, now 64, was partially paralyzed in the 2003 attack.
