Both
these quotes from Tennessee William plays essentially sum up my philosophy of
being a professional magician…
“I don’t
want realism. I want magic! Yes, yes, magic! I try to give that to people. I
misrepresent things to them. I don’t tell the truth, I tell what ought to be
the truth.”
(A Streetcar Named Desire)
“I have tricks in my pocket, I have things up
my sleeve. But I am the opposite of a stage magician. He gives you illusion that has the appearance of truth. I
give you truth in the pleasant disguise of illusion.”
(The
Glass Menagerie)
