Mystique

Prepare to be amazed when internationally acclaimed illusionist and Australia’s Got Talent finalist Michael Boyd returns to the State Theatre with his jaw-dropping, mind-bending magic and illusion spectacular, Mystique – A Journey Beyond Reality, for one performance only on Saturday 10 October.
Combining grand illusion, theatrical storytelling, spectacular dance and audience participation, Mystique – A Journey Beyond Reality features some of the world’s most spectacular large-scale illusions, crafted by the same creative team behind legendary illusionist David Copperfield.

At the centre of the production is the jaw-dropping Deadly Scorpion Illusion — a AUD50,000 robotic contraption that sees Michael dicing with death beneath a swinging two-metre buzz saw blade and a venomous scorpion tail in one of the most dangerous illusions ever staged in Australia.
The show also features the breathtaking Double Levitation Illusion, where a dancer rises to dizzying heights while Michael soars across the State Theatre in a Peter Pan-style flight, defying gravity in a spectacular feat that must be seen to be believed.
Filled with dazzling special effects, world-class illusions, stunning choreography and theatrical spectacle, Mystique delivers a magical journey beyond reality for audiences of all ages.
