A chair rises into the air through the magical energy of magicians Goldfinger & Dove.

In a front stage video, Goldfinger invites fellow magician Dove to sit on the Throne of Enlightenment and prepare herself to be taken to a higher place. Bathed in light, the throne rises, seeming to hang in mid-air! You can sit in that same chair as it rises front stage.

You can also learn about the cultural pull of levitation illusions over time, the psychological principles of camouflage, cause and effect reasoning, the science of simple mechanics, and the art of performance that makes this illusion work.

Go backstage to learn the techniques we used in this unique custom-made illusion to escape gravity's hold—but we won't spoil everything for you.
