Added DiffLines:

* The large EFX Master head projection that opens the show, delivering a powerful monologue to summon the Masters of Magic, Laughter, Spirits and Time and shooting lasers from its eyes.

* The flying saucer the headliner rides in the title/opening number, which travels the stage at breakneck speeds against a large curtain of fog.

* The reveal of Merlin and Morgana each transforming into large animatronic dragons, especially how close they actually are to each other when they begin breathing flames.

* The transition from Barnum's spaceship flying in via projection and then seeing it land on-stage with the rumble of its engines shaking the whole theater.

* The Flying Kaganovitch trapeze act, accompanied by its AwesomeMusic.

* The Jig, especially with the sounds of all the cast's footsteps.
** Michael Crawford's EFX Master flying after his assistant.
** Tommy Tune's tap number which proceeds this.

* The Spike Cage Escape, which includes a performer BaitAndSwitch with Houdini reappearing as the executioner.

* The sudden appearance of the headliner (post-Cassidy) in the audience following the Chinese Water Torture Cell.

* The entire H.G. Wells 3D film, which includes a knight pointing an axe at the audience and the time machine nearly being eaten by an aquatic lizard.

* The giant hand and power sphere that Michael Crawford stands on in the finale.
** The ensemble climbing up the sides proscenium.
