| Synopsis: | In 1856, the French government was faced with an uprising in occupied Algeria. The mutiny's leaders were rumoured to perform miracles, so they hit upon the idea of countering magic with magic. The famous magician Jean Eugene Robert-Houdin was dispatched to Algeria where in a variation on the famous bullet trick he offered to be shot at close range by a local marksman. Robert-Houdin survived, and magic won the war. The latest piece from Marisa Camesky is an intriguing look at war and violence, and the illusions to which we all fall prey. It takes in the war on terror and the sleight of hand and trickery invoked by those who want to keep the war machine running. - Lyn Gardner, Guardian | |||||
