The Sistine Illusion
A video is worth a million words. As you watch the girl walk behind the table, her silhouette is clearly seen through the glass. It travels perfectly in sync across the entire width of the see-through front. The effect is 100% convincing. The illusion that has already captured the imaginations of some of the world's best known magicians is now ready for your audiences.

A Versatile Design
The Sistine Illusion is more than a stand-alone performance piece. It also works as a base unit for virtually any traditional design. With a few additional props, the Sistine Illusion System creates The Lady From Light on a see-through platform. And, after the first girl appears, two more girls emerge for an unexpected finale. With different glass set at an angle, the Sistine Illusion System creates a new, mind-shattering version of Sawing a Lady with a semi-transparent base and glass blades. These concepts, and more, will be featured in the coming weeks from Michelangelo Magic Works.

Variations
The Sistine Illusion can be given a high-profile finish to stand out as its own effect or decorated unobtrusively to remain in the background so that optional props will get all the attention. The heart of the illusion remains the same no matter how you choose to show it. In the end, the audience's applause is all yours.

Complete Illusion System
Years of research, experimentation and prototyping to develop a method that elegantly, transparently deceives the viewer. Highly adaptable. Thoroughly believable. Dazzling and beautiful.

The Sistine Illusion system uses glass and light to create an elevated, see-through platform for theatrical grand illusion. Its design is compact, portable, sets up quickly and is completely self-contained. The lighting system is included and runs on a single power connection or can be battery operated.

No black art
No special backdrops
No costly lighting

The illusion can be performed in virtually any setting and benefits from open, colorfully-appointed surroundings.

Any number of effects can be added when used as a base. Besides the expected appearances and vanishes: transpositions, transformations, dividing-into-parts, and even one-man presentations are easily possible.

The Sistine Illusion system represents a significant advancement in illusion design. From adding a striking new illusion to your show or updating your favorite designs with a fresh look, the possibilities are unlimited. Built to suit or we will work with your favorite builder.
