I need a volunteer.
Many hands.
Why don’t you come up?
Heads turn.
Yes you, skinny girl there.
Why?
Why? So I can cut you in half. Or vanish you into thin air.
You call that magic?
Dissecting you is not magic. Bringing you back is.
Quietness.
That’s not magic.
Bringing the dead back to life isn’t magic?
Girl smiles.
No. But making the dead walk, is.
Audience laughs.
The dead walk too?
Audience laughs.
Girl smiles.
And sometimes walk into magic shows too!
Prove it.
When does your show get over?
This was my last act.
Smiles.
[Curtains]
Magic.
