PACKAGE #8 - BASE WORK

This package details J C's original work on illusion bases as well as two original illusions utilizing his base design.

• Original Thoughts, Design & Fabrication of his Modern Base Work (from Illusionary Departures)
• Crystal Striptease (from Illusionary Departures)
• Light & Space (from Equilateral)

Both illusions require only one assistant and can be performed surrounded.


Crystal Striptease

A girl dances sensually across the stage and steps into a rectangular prop covered with a silver cloth skirting. The prop’s lid is closed over the girl. The illusionist reaches his arm inside the prop through a hole in the lid and pulls out various articles of clothing, apparently ‘stripping’ the girl of her clothes.

Just as her last articles of clothing are removed, the illusionist whisks the skirting away to reveal an empty crystal box. The girl has vanished!

The illusionist displays a new different set of clothes and drops it into the crystal box. The box is covered with the cloth and revolved around. The cloth is whisked away revealing that the girl has reappeared in the new set of clothes!


Light & Space

A large rectangular box, sitting atop a table with castor legs, is displayed on stage. The box has an open front so that the audience can see inside the box. The illusionist enters the box, practically filling up the entire interior of the box. The top panel of the box is hinged so that it can be flipped forward to cover the entire front of the box. The illusionist extends his hand out through a 6” hole in the front of the panel.

Two assistants take two long strobing light staffs and insert them through the entire length of the box via holes in the sides of the box. The illusionist’s hand is seen to the last moment and when it is pulled back through the hole into the box, the assistants immediately lift up the front panel to show that the illusionist has completely vanished. The box is empty except for the two strobing light staffs that are crossed lengthwise through the center of the box.

The prop is turned 180 degrees and the back door is lowered so that the audience can now see completely through the empty box. The strobing light staffs are removed from the box. A cloth screen is rolled down so that the front of the box (now facing the back) is covered from view. The back door (now facing the audience) is then closed up. The prop is rotated 180 degrees back to its original position and the instant it completes its rotation, the cloth screen is ripped away revealing the illusionist back inside the box!
