Imagining a magician becoming a pilot and conjuring up a Patrouille de France airplane is just a sample of what Gaël Illusioniste has in store. The magician brilliantly illustrates Antoine de Saint Exupéry's quote: "Make your life a dream and your dream a reality" with his show 'Mirage', for an exceptional performance at La Seine Musicale, on November 23, 2023.
Renowned for his unique talent and spectacular performances, Gaël Illusionniste has always had the ability to straddle the boundary between the real and the unreal. In Mirage, the magician presents a marvellous evening of magic and aviation at La Seine Musicale. Mirage is more than just a show; it's a window onto the dreams of Gaël, a gifted artist who has wanted to become a magician and a fighter pilot ever since he was a child.
On stage, Gaël interprets his two passions and unites them in a performance that is both a work of art and a personal confession. The magician shares with the audience his story and his beginnings as an illusionist. His mega illusion and close-up acts, staged with audience participation, make this show unique in its genre. Gaël also pays poetic tribute to his grandfather, his first fan and photography enthusiast, with a card manipulation act projected onto giant screens.
Mirage" is an emotional journey dotted with personal stories. Gaël shares the story of his plane crash and emergency landing in 2015. The audience's illusion of him passing through a working turbine and reappearing in the middle of the audience is a therapeutic way of dealing with this traumatic moment from the past.
One of the highlights of Mirage is the tall, bearded technician who is omnipresent throughout the show. Becoming a key character, he humorously disrupts the smooth running of the show, eliciting laughter from the audience. GAËL has to deal with these zany, comical situations!
