Can You Believe?

Vitelli is a breaking the ice in Sin City and is giving tenured magician Kris Angel a run for his money. While Angel may be a television star, his head is in Hollywood and not in the realm of magic and illusion. Angel is known for his overly extravagant (and expensive) Las Vegas show, Cirque de Soleil "Believe", which is a live production at the Luxor Hotel Casino and Resort.

It is clear that Angel is an established act in the city with a million lights, however; Vitelli points out that Angel is in it for the Broadway experience rather than the science and theory of magic. Point being, Angel originally tried to pitch his show as a Broadway-type theatrical performance before making a partnership with Luxor's parent company, MGM Grand for over $100,000,000. Vitelli admits Angel's paycheck is a nice reward, however; he is not in the art of magic for the money.

Vitelli is a distinguished magician who has the ability to transform the minds of his audience. Using various techniques, including psychoanalysis and sleight of hand, Vitelli performs his show without the use of special "made for magic" gimmicks or devices. He is able to perform the acts and create the illusions by focusing the audience's attention to a specific area of the stage.

Vitelli provides a stage performance that is unique to the industry. He does use special effects and other special technologies, however; Vitelli performs his illusions with the utmost professionalism. He has transcended the magic community far past the traditional deck of cards and coin tricks His ability to combine scientific evidence with the art of magic enables him to deliver a beautiful production. For most individuals such as Vitelli, magic is a way of life and much more than a Hollywood extravaganza.

While Vitelli is not your mainstream magician, he stands tall with magicians such as Kris Angel, David Blaine, and Copperfield. While he continues to develop his skills and create mind-blowing illusions, Vitelli believes that he has the skills and abilities to compete with these players on a professional level.
