What is Walt Anthony's "Story-Magic"?

Since ancient days, people clustered in groups and invented stories to explain the unexplainable- the Seasons, the Elements, the Stars.

The Stories, Fables, and Myths which arose were filled with Wonder, Magic, and Healing, and provided a foundation upon which a people explored their beliefs.

Shaman Priests, Druid Teachers, and Wise Women all understood the power of the Spoken Word-  while in our time, "entertainment" is epitomized by canned-comedy on television-  the gulf has widened between our amusements and our inner truths. At Spellbinder Entertainment we recognize the necessity of re-introducing these ancient forms of amusement in a new guise.

Why can a movie, with plot-twists and special-effects, move us so deeply when most live entertainers move us only to laughter-  if they elicit any emotional  response at all?

As a contemporary conjurer, Walt Anthony combines the Art of Magic and the Art of Storytelling to evoke for today's audience a sense of Astonishment, Emotional Intensity, and Wonder- things lost to many of us since childhood.

The powers of Myth and Magic, when united can take us on a kaleidoscopic journey of feelings and experiences. They hold a mirror to our mind, and reflect the truth of the Human Experience in the form of entertainment.

Our presentations transport our audience to another world -called Imagination- and on this journey reveal the Truths of the Heart, while Magically entertaining the senses!
