"What makes this performance so special is that the incredible magic and the visual art are so interwoven that we learn as well as being entertained. It’s such a clever concept that surprises and educates us."

How would it feel to watch a conjuror perform in the Middle Ages, when suspected witches and sorcerers were cruelly tortured or burnt alive at the stake? 
What if you then traveled, via some shamanistic ritual and a shared dream through an imaginary plane … all the way to the conceptual art of today?
In this modern magic show, Dimis takes you on a journey to explore the changing meaning of art and magic. He will tell stories and challenge your mind, as good art and magic must always do.

Reviews
⭐⭐⭐⭐
"The captivating magic, aided by numerous members of the audience, is enthralling, all performed with skill and dexterity and delightful background stories. ... So what is magic? Perhaps where the impossible becomes the possible, and, in the very capable hands of Dimis, it is indeed possible."
"[A] compelling small gem blending art storytelling and magic."
“… what made his show most special was its ability to make you feel as though you were part of the performance – the exhibit – itself. An elaborate storyteller, Michaelides called upon audience members to be volunteers, each one gleeful that he or she had been selected … But Michaelides’ show further diverged from typical magic shows in that it also offered acts that were not traditional magic.”
“You had the audience in the palm of your hand … [and] … if part of the purpose was to add meaning to magic, you certainly did that.””
“Dimis is the best keynote speaker I have ever seen!”
“Dimis is a captivating and charismatic speaker and magician with plenty of substance.”
“Dimis' motivational speeches are magic! Not just entertaining, but totally captivating our hearts and minds.”
