Conjuring Life and Death: The Essence of Illusions

Delve into the history of magicians of the late 1800s. By the start of the 20th century, as early cinema promised action and adventure, audiences were eager for new marvels. Learn how magicians of the day competed for the entertainment dollar with the introduction of blades, chains, bullets, and fire into their death-defying performances. Let professional magician Tony Blake be your guide through this exciting era of magic with actual magic demonstrations from that time—sans the bullets! [1 of 2 sessions] Instructor: Tony Blake
