With his emo haircut, dark shades and tattoos, Criss Angel looks more the part of the rock star than the man who pulls a rabbit out of a hat. But then, a rabbit out of a hat isn’t his style—it’s too simple, and not extreme enough.
Angel has capitalized on his image and unique style to craft a new kind of magic show, one that celebrates the wonder of illusion that doubtlessly inspired him as a kid, yet also combines a modern and edgy approach to entertainment that appeals to a lot of people and keeps them interested.
Magic has been around for centuries. Conjurors first began to appear in the Middle Ages, working on street corners and traveling the countryside, using simple tricks and sleight-of-hand to impress small crowds. As entertainment evolved, so did magic, eventually becoming the more elaborate art form developed in the 18th century and 19th century. Late in the 1800s, Harry Houdini cemented his position as the world’s best known magician—an honor he still holds today. His escapology and showmanship are things that Criss Angel obviously looked up to and borrowed a bit for his own shows.
The modern age of the magician is one still filled with eye-popping stunts that people have trouble believing. If anything, with the spread of education and skepticism, people are less likely to expect the amazement that comes with a great magic trick. Criss Angel has sought to restore that faith in the impossible in a grand old fashion, much in the way that Houdini did in his time. But for Angel, magic is a much more rock ‘n’ roll endeavor, more charged and energetic and a little bit dangerous.
He’s grown in fame performing live shows, and eventually secured a television show, “Mindfreak with Criss Angel.” That show increased his recognition and brought his unique brand of magic to the country. Now he’s got a regular gig performing at the Luxor Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, NV. Better than that, Cirque Du Soleil has teamed up with him to create a Criss Angel themed show.
