Magic Family Keeps Tradition Going

Father and Son working on a new illusion.

The elder Gaetano appears to enjoy his role as chief illusion builder.

?I?ve built most of his props ? the Houdini trick, the vanishing birdcage and the levitation table,? among other things, said the elder Garafalo.

?When I was a mechanic, I worked with metal and wood. I became a jack of all trades,? he said.
Garafalo said the props ?are actually very simple.?


?Gaetano tells me what he wants and how he wants to do it.?

The younger Gaetano has had a very successful career entertaining in across the country and recently on cruise ships. The cruise ship gigs provide an added bonus, he not only gets the great food, the fun voyages, the pay and the chance to perform; he also docks in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida — near his parents’ home.

In May, however, the Golden Princess is scheduled to change its itinerary to the Mediterranean. Gaetano has promised his parents he will sign on for another year with the cruise ship so that he’ll again be able to visit when it returns to Ft. Lauderdale.
