New York Times Fashionさんのインスタグラム写真 - (New York Times FashionInstagram)「When the illusionist Anna DeGuzman introduced herself at an audition for “America’s Got Talent,” the actress and judge Sofia Vergara asked, “How is it that there’s not many women that are magicians?” Only around 8% of professional magicians are women, according to a spokeswoman for the Magic Castle, a private clubhouse in Los Angeles for members of the Academy of Magical Arts. The illusionist Gay Blackstone says there are many factors to blame for the stubborn disparity, including sexism, wardrobe limitations and the enduring stereotype that women best serve as the audience’s distraction. She predicts there will be “an explosion” of women pursuing magic in the next five to 10 years, as a younger generation of illusionists learns to take old tricks and make them their own.
