ALL THE TRICKS

Nothing, it seems, is too
much for the Mark Hellinger
stage. Henning, billed as both
the star of Merlin and the
creator of the show's ‘illu-
sions, drawa‘on all its stage

machinery, Trap-door tricks col

abound, as do flashes of fire
and cartridges ‘of smoke.

Perhaps the biggest illu-
sion is a disappearing horse.
It is led ‘on stage, looking
seared, and stabled in a wood
and iron cage with Henning.
They are hoisted off the floor
and disappear in a clatter,
but: immediately reappear
