With the premiering of movies such as Now You See Me, the fascination with the art of deception has been awakened in many souls. While magic has a long history, it has been considered as sorcery and witchcraft and has led to the death of many across the world. With the onset of the 20th century, however, magic had developed its reputation as the staunch art of deception and proved to be a worthy distraction to ongoing humanitarian and social problems such as the World Wars and the Great Depression. A magic show in this era would surely have been a sight to behold from the setup of the old halls and the manner in which magicians hold the gaze of their audiences to the admiring glances as they deceive with an air of confidence and mystery.
