Description & Effect
The Grand Illusion, Miniaturized
Imagine the spectacle of a grand stage illusion – the dramatic act of cutting a person in half – now miniaturized and brought to the intimacy of close-up magic. With Angelo Carbone's Demi Deck, this impossible feat transcends the stage, fitting perfectly into the palm of your hand. You'll take an ordinary deck of cards, place it into its case, and with a swift, visible slice, visually sever the deck into two distinct halves. The audience sees both ends, separated and undeniable. Then, with a few magical gestures, the deck is mystifyingly restored to its original, whole state. This isn't just a trick; it's a profound, personal experience of a monumental illusion.

Stage illusions are distinct from all other types of magic...They are larger than life exhibitions of our will to accomplish the impossible. But to maintain that illusion, the audience must view it at a considerable distance. Angelo Carbone's brilliant mind brings the grandest of stage illusions - cutting a person in half - to the palm of your hand, with Demi Deck.
Imagine taking an ordinary deck of cards, putting it inside the case, and with a slice of the blade you cut the deck in half, showing both ends. Then with a few kind words, magically heal the deck back together. Use this as an opener, in the middle of your set, or as a show stopping closer.
