MYSTIQUE: Michael Boyd's Big Show

Sydney magic lovers and thrill-seekers are in for a treat as internationally acclaimed illusionist Michael Boyd brings his spellbinding show MYSTIQUE back to the iconic State Theatre for two exclusive performances on Friday, October 4, 2024. Following a triumphant run last year, Boyd's return promises to elevate the art of illusion to new heights.

Michael Boyd, an Australia's Got Talent finalist, has firmly established himself as one of the country's premier magicians. His journey from learning tricks from his grandfather to becoming a household name is a testament to his dedication and skill. Boyd's early start in magic, joining the Young Magicians Magic School at just 13, laid the foundation for what would become a stellar career in illusion and entertainment.

MYSTIQUE will showcase some of the world's most impressive illusions, many of which have been designed and constructed by the same team that works with the legendary David Copperfield. The centrepiece of the show is The Scorpion, a heart-stopping $50,000 contraption direct from Las Vegas, promising to push the boundaries of danger and amazement.

Expect a diverse array of magical feats, including death-defying escapes, mind-bending levitations, startling transformations, and disappearances that defy explanation. The production values are top-shelf, with special effects that question the very nature of reality.

Boyd's talent has not gone unnoticed by celebrities and critics alike. Dawn French praised him as "a stunning magician," while Geri Halliwell of Spice Girls fame was left in awe during his Australia's Got Talent performance. Aussie Theatre has lauded MYSTIQUE for its variety, class, humour, and high-gloss production values, emphasising its appeal to audiences of all ages.

From his early days performing three shows a day on the road, to his breakthrough on the TV show Pot Luck, Boyd's career has been on an upward trajectory. Now, as one of Australia's most acclaimed illusionists, he brings a wealth of experience and a passion for pushing the boundaries of his craft to every performance.

MYSTIQUE is an opportunity to witness the culmination of a lifelong dedication to the art of illusion, presented by a homegrown talent who has risen to international acclaim. There are only two shows scheduled for what promises to be an unforgettable experience of wonder and amazement at the State Theatre.
