The Frozen Carousel Shaina Tranquilino December 24, 2024

In a forgotten corner of the world, beyond the rolling hills and thick forests, stood a mysterious carnival frozen in time. The moonlight danced on the icy surface of a carousel, its horses suspended mid-gallop, their manes and tails frosted like the breath of winter. The carnival had been abandoned for years, or so the villagers thought, until the whispers began.

It was on a bitterly cold night that Elara, a young girl with a heart full of dreams, heard the stories. The old folk spoke in hushed tones of a magical carousel hidden deep in the woods—one that could grant any wish to those who were brave enough to ride it. But the price was steep: only those who faced their deepest fears could ride without being swallowed by the ice that encased it.

Elara, longing for adventure, set out the very next evening. The wind howled, and the trees groaned under the weight of snow, but Elara pressed on, determined to find the carousel. When she finally reached the clearing, there it was, magnificent and eerie—frozen yet full of life, waiting.

The carousel stood silent as if daring her to approach. Her breath caught in her throat as she laid her hands on one of the horses. The ice beneath her fingers shimmered, and for a moment, she saw flashes of her past—her happiest memories, and then, her greatest fear: the loss of her family. Her mother had passed when she was very young, and Elara feared being alone forever.

She hesitated, but the winds whispered her name. "Ride, and your wish will be granted."

With a steady breath, Elara climbed onto the horse, her heart pounding. The instant her feet touched the stirrups, the carousel began to turn. Slowly at first, then faster and faster, until the wind rushed in her ears. The ice cracked beneath her, not threatening, but inviting, as if the carousel was alive.

As the ride spun, Elara closed her eyes. She thought of her mother, of the warmth of her embrace, and the joy of family. The carousel swirled faster, the ice now breaking, melting away like the winter thaw. She felt her heart expand with hope—she wasn’t alone anymore.

When the carousel finally came to a stop, the moonlight bathed the clearing in a soft glow. The ice had vanished, leaving behind a lush meadow. Elara looked around, astonished. The carnival was no longer frozen in time. The horses stood still, but they weren’t cold anymore; they were warm, vibrant, waiting for their next rider.

She smiled, knowing her wish had come true—not for the return of her mother, but for the strength to carry her memory in her heart forever. Elara dismounted the horse and turned to leave, but as she walked away, the carousel began to spin again, beckoning another brave soul.

The Frozen Carousel was no longer just a legend. It was a gift—waiting for those who dared to face their deepest fears and take a ride into the unknown.

The Mountain Fairy ❤️

In the mist-veiled mountains, where the air is sharp and chill and the pines whisper secrets older than time, dwells a fairy. Her hair flows like dark, gleaming rivers, and her eyes glimmer with the cold light of moonlight on pristine snow.

Stories linger of her gifts—one wish granted to those who ask the one true question. But her gifts are not of riches or power; they are something rarer, something true.

Can you find her? Can you ask her the right question?

Hint: It is something quite obvious.

Timeless Magic’s “Palace intrigue”

“The palace intrigue behind Chicago’s 1893 World’s Columbian Exhibition is alive and well in this tidy 60-minute act from magician Sean Masterson. The narrative revolves around a cryptic coin dating back to the World's Fair, acquired by Masterson when he was a boy.”

—The Chicago Reader reviewing Timeless Magic at Theater Wit

The solid silver commemorative coin from the Columbian Exposition belonged to my great Uncle Ed. He passed it on to his younger brother, my grandfather.

The Chicago’s World’s Fair of 1893 has always loomed as a magical place in my imagination. I’m not the only one. Chicago resident Frank L. Baum took his inspiration for the Land of Oz from the “White City”.

What fascinates me is how the fair brought together many of the notable players of the following century. Nikola Tesla beat out Thomas Edison to generate the fair’s electricity with his alternating current (Edison won the 20th century with his direct current). George Ferris constructed the very first Ferris Wheel on the fairgrounds to compete with the visual wonder of the Eiffel Tower from the 1889 Paris fair. The Yerkes telescope was built for the fair as the world’s largest refracting telescope (It’s still the largest and you can still visit it today). Archduke Franz Ferdinand, whose assassination ten years later would kick off a series of events leading to World War I, also visited the fair.

My main fascination is the magicians who performed and passed through the fair including Harry Houdini and Howard Thurston. I include both of these magicians in my show Timeless Magic now playing at Theater Wit. Much has been written about Houdini. But, in the beginning of the 20th century Thurston’s name was far more synonymous with magic. An extraordinarily adept manipulator of playing cards, Thurston went on to command one the great illusion shows of the 20th century. For 35 years he crisscrossed the entire country with his full-evening show. The sets and illusions for his lavish spectacle filled eight railroad cars.

Billy Robinson is another magician who came to Chicago for the fair and is the main character in my show at The Wit. In 1893, like Houdini and Thurston, he was also an unknown prestidigitateur who would later skyrocket to fame.

The show “functions as a historical anthology, highlighting the performers and the tricks... that informed much of magic’s golden era.”

Alexander Herrmann (1844-1896) was born in Paris and was “kidnapped” by his eldest brother, the famous magician Compars Herrmann, who took him on tour to Russia where at age 8 Alexander debuted for the Czar Alexander II. Herrmann rarely performed the dangerous bullet catch feat due to Adelaide’s “deep-rooted aversion to the trick”. But, on those rare occaissions, his technical assistant was always Billy Robinson. Herrmann’s poster can be seen in The Chicago Magic Lounge's library bookcase.
