SHOW PROPOSAL FOR MUSCAT FESTIVAL

MINI ILLUSION SHOW PACKAGE

SHOW DESCRIPTION
George Diamond’s Mini Illusion Show is a very practical, but yet spectacular
show that packs small and plays big, thus being an ideal show to travel with.
Although most of the props can be transported as check in luggage on the plane,
once set on stage, the show turns every venue into a Vegas showroom with an
amazing and mystifying illusions glamorous costumes and . It is a blend of
several big illusions and illusionettes performed in a dynamic and highly
energized manner, along with lots of good humor and audience interaction. This
show will leave the audience breathless while bringing them loads of fun all the
time and will provide an ideal family entertainment for all ages.

The show has been designed in such way that it can be presented in almost any
performance conditions and adapted to any venue. It will play equally good for
very large crowds as well as for smaller auditoriums.

SHOW DETAILS
The show is approximately 35 minutes long. It can be made slightly longer or
shorter as per Organizer’s requirements. This show can be performed up to 4-5
times a day.

The show consists of the following illusionary sequences:

- Head Vanish Illusion - Amazing illusionette in which the girl’s head

vanishes without a trace, while the rest of her body seated on a chair
moves to the rhythm of the music.
- Cubes Illusion – The lovely assistant enters a cabinet and gets divided in
2 parts which are then pierced with large tubes in a most impossible
manner. The 2 parts of the girl are finally divided apart. Her hand is
protruding from one of the parts and waving to the audience. Finally, she
emerges unharmed and in a different dress, to the amazement of the
audience!
- Super Walking Knot Illusion – Mystifying illusionary routine that does not
use the big boxes, and is performed only with 5 meters of rope stretched
across the stage. This illusion involves audience interaction.
- Escape from 5 meters of rope – This illusion starts in a Houdini-like
manner. Assistant is tightly tied with 5 meters of rope with her hands tied
behind her back. Audience checks the ropes once she is tied up. A
spectator is invited on stage to witness the illusion close up. Instead of the
escape the illusion ends with a hilarious unexpected surprise. When the
girl and the spectator are covered by the curtain for a brief moment and
uncovered, she is found wearing the spectator’s jacket with the ropes still
tightly tied over it. This is a comedy illusion with audience participation.
 - Crazy Bottles – A funny routine with bottles and glasses in which everyone
gets amazed. The bottles and glasses keep changing places, and too
many bottles keep appearing from nowhere all the time. Everyone will love
this fun packed routine!
- Vegas Big Card Monte – Performed to the Viva Las Vegas tune by Elvis,
the audience will witness a choreographed game with 3 huge sized cards.
No matter what, they won’t be able to find the Queen between two Kings
as cards mysteriously change places in hands of George and his
assistant. A nostalgic, elegant and funny Vegas experience!
- Floating Table Illusion – The little table suddenly comes to life and starts to
float over the stage. It dances with George, flies above the heads of the
audience and finally dances in midair around a spectator. This illusion
involves audience participation.
- Vanishing Stereo – This is an amazing finale to the show! The brokend
sound is suddenly heard from the stereo that was playing the music during
the show. George covers it with a cloth and in an instant the music stops.
George throws the covered stereo high up in the air, and all of a sudden,
just the empty cloth falls into George’s hands. The stereo has vanished in
mid air!!! George lifts the empty cloth and the words printed on it say “The
End”!

 PERFORMANCE CONDITIONS
These are basic performance conditions. The detailed Technical Rider will be
provided once the show has been booked.

The show is versatile and adaptable to different venues.

- The raised stage is not mandatory. However, this kind of show looks best
when presented on a raised stage.
- The show can fully be performed even on small stages (we have managed
to perform it even on a 3m x 3m stage), but it looks best when performed
on an 8m x 5m stage or larger.
- This show uses several pieces of large equipment, so some backstage
space for storage of the equipment and assistant’s costume changes
between the sequences of the show is needed.
- This show looks best when performed under professional lighting
(spotlights of 500 W or more). The lights will enhance the visual aspects of
the show, the beautiful design of the props as well as the glamorous
costumes George and his assistant use on stage.
- A professional audio system is needed. Some of the music for the show
should be played on cues, so a technical rehearsal with a sound
technician is mandatory.
- Stagehands (1 or 2) are needed for this show. Local stagehands provided
by the Organizers can be used. Minimum 2 technical rehearsals with
stagehands are mandatory before the first show. The role of the
stagehands is to handle the equipment during the show as well as to help
reset the show if performed several times during the same day.

EQUIPMENT/PROPS
A good side of this show is that it can all be transported as check in luggage on
the plane (some prearrangements with the airlines are necessary in this case,
having in mind that the dimensions and weights of the cases are somewhat
different from the usual airline luggage standards).Also the shipment of the props
can be organized in such way so that large ATA cases can be transported as
cargo shipment, while the rest of the equipment can be carried as check in
luggage. Some equipment used in this show comes in ATA cases (items 1 to 3)
and some of it comes in regular suitcases (item 4). The weight (in kilos) and the
dimensions (in centimeters) of the cases are:

1) 124 x 68 x 25 – 50 kg
2) 77 x 49 x 41.5 – 15 kg
3) 35.5 x 63.5 x 58 – 15 kg
4) 2 suitcases of approximately 25 kilos each
Total weight – 130 kg

FEE
We are proud to be able to offer this show for a special festival fee of US$ 4 500
for a one month contract, US$ 3 000 for a two week contract or US$ 2 200 for
one week contract.
