Ed Alonzo, illusionist and comedian, reveals a magic show will be part of the Britney Spears Circus tour performance:
"Right away, she got into the boxes and into the magic contraptions to learn the stuff, and she’s so excited about this tour and all the elements that are in it."
"We’re going to be doing the classics of magic, but a little high-tech. We’ll be doing a little dissection, transposition, a vanish, an appearance, and if I do a trick, she doesn’t just hold the props, she’s actually getting inside the big boxes or I am slicing her up."
"I made the tricks really easy for her, but there are some complicated things that she is doing that you would think a contortionist would have to do, or a trained magician’s assistant, but because she’s a dancer, it really makes sense to put her in the magic, and it works and she’s really, really good at it."
"Some of it’s pretty scary, but she gets right in there with no reservations."
"The three-ring circus-inspired set is exactly what you would see in a big giant Vegas production show, but it’s going to be on the road, and anywhere from 75 to 100 crew members and performers are usually around at any given time."
"It’s going to be an amazing concert for people to watch. It’s like watching a big Cirque du Soleil high-tech circus, but with a really focused star in the middle of all of this."
Sounds exciting.
