THE MAGIC SHOW The highly successful Broadway play The Magic Show brought magical illusions as well as engaging music to the story of a talented young magician Doug (Doug Henning) using his magic for "good" over the villainous "evil" magic performed by the dastardly Van Zyskind. The music and in particular the magic presented a dazzling display of wizardry by Doug Henning, who triumphs in the end to the delight of all. This was at the time one of Broadway's most beloved and longest-running musicals and captured the legendary talents of Doug Henning, Anita Morris, and Didi Conn at their best. ABOUT DOUG HENNING Canadian born Doug Henning (1947-2000) was a stage illusionist who revitalized the world of magic in the mid 1970s. A student of both Dai Vernon and Slydini, he started his magical career at the age of 14. After college, he developed a musical with a magic theme (Spellbound) with the assistance of college friends Ivan Reitman (later to direct Ghostbusters) and Howard Shore (later to compose the music for Lord of the Rings). That musical went to Broadway as The Magic Show and brought Henning international fame as its star. Henning's new wave brand of magic proved very popular, and he was given several TV magic specials as well as a number of successful road tours. His next musical, Merlin, was less successful. Henning then started his own production company, creating special effects for music videos and concert tours. He also became involved in a project with the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, a spectacular special effects theme park based on the teachings of Transcendental Meditation. Veda Land was never more than a plan on paper before Doug Henning died of liver cancer in February 2000. His cremated ashes were scattered at sea.___________________________ If you have a question - please ask before you buy! I will answer all questions honestly and quickly.
