Hypnotic Gestures.

Fancy Clothes

Lovely Assistants.

These things may make the magician, but science makes the magic.

Levitation tells the amazing true story of the most dazzling illusion ever performed on stage, and features a cast of characters that seems too good to be true: The Scientist; John Neville Maskelyne; The American, Harry Kellar; The Inventor, Guy Jarrett; and The Heir, Howard Thurston. According to Kellar, Thurston ruined the illusion he inherited.

Or did he? Join us on stage and behind it and learn not only how to defy gravity, but why people believed you could.

This unique graphic novel is perfect bound, and 72 pages in length.

"The art is lively with nice Georgian and Jazz Age touches, especially in face shots that resemble old, hypnotic-eyed daguerreotypes of mesmerists in frock coats."

--Publisher's Weekly
