Illusions and authentic costumes




 



David Hennig -
Magic Around the World

April 16, 1999

This program is designed to introduce you to the oldest and most universal performing art...MAGIC! David will take you around the globe as we examine the earliest records of magic in the ancient cultures of Egypt and China, and later turn to Europe where magic flourished during the period of the Renaissance through the latter part of the 19th century.
David is a magician with a mission who captivates his audience with his illusions and tales about the history of magic, utilizing authentic costumes. He explains one actual illusion (after audience participation) and reinforces such ideas as "knowledge is power."
