Trucy´s Magic Show

A promotional poster for the show.

Trucy in Gramarye-Land is a hybrid stage play and magic show starring the young magician Trucy Wright. Originally, Manov Mistree was to play the role of the main antagonist, the Great Mr. Reus, with Bonny de Famme playing a supporting role. The show was conceived as a revival of the magic act of the once popular magician group Troupe Gramarye, after the performance rights to the group's magic was passed down to her from her grandfather, Magnifi, through her father, Shadi Enigmar. Trucy in Gramarye-Land was produced by Roger Retinz of Take-2 TV and set to be broadcast nationwide upon its premiere at the Penrose Theater on April 29, 2028.

The show was almost canceled due to an incident that resulted in Mistree's death during a dress rehearsal, two days before the premiere. Wright was initially thought to have caused the incident — first on charges of involuntary manslaughter and later premeditated murder due to an indictment by Prosecutor Nahyuta Sahdmadhi — but was eventually cleared in court thanks to the efforts of defense attorney Apollo Justice, allowing the show to proceed without Mistree.

Wright removing her hat.

Trucy Wright runs through a forest of giant mushrooms, with Mr. Reus flying after her in pursuit, while a castle and hedge maze are visible in the background. Catching up to Wright, Mr. Reus turns into a green and purple dragon and breathes fire upon her. Wright screams in shock, but the flames soon dissipate to reveal her unharmed and now wearing her usual magician's outfit consisting of a blue silk hat and cape. Berating Mr. Reus for using magic for evil, Wright removes her hat and sends it spinning into the air, whereupon it grows to an enormous size, imprisoning Mr. Reus and bringing him crashing down onto the ground.

Second act: Bonny's teleportation trick and Wright's escape trick[]

Betty on the coffin

De Famme on top of Mr. Reus's coffin.

An unnamed associate of Mr. Reus (played by de Famme) is seen sitting on top of a green and purple coffin. Wright confronts de Famme, only for the latter to employ her teleportation ability and surprise Wright from behind, knocking her into the coffin. De Famme then charms Wright's puppet, Mr. Hat, with a kiss and tells him to sacrifice Wright to Mr. Reus in order to bring the magician back to life.

Wright thrusting her sword into the coffin.

Hypnotized, Mr. Hat prepares to thrust a sword into the coffin with Wright inside, but disappears in a cloud of smoke, which dissipates to reveal Wright standing where Mr. Hat had been with the sword in her hand. After announcing that no one will be revived that night, Wright stabs the sword into the coffin through a hole in the side. The coffin is then opened.

Third act: Mr Reus's fire trick[]

Firebucket

The fire bucket.

The third act was not played due to Mistree's death. It involved quite a dangerous fire trick, which was to be performed by Mistree and would require a fire bucket to be prepared.

Roger Retinz organized a prank on Wright with Mistree and the de Famme twins. When the coffin opened during the second act, Mistree fell out, pretending to be dead, giving the impression Wright had stabbed him with a real sword. When everyone left and the dragon concealed the scene, Manov was lifted and stabbed with a sword.

Manov died, but a mistake by Betty complicates the case for Retinz. During Trucy's trials it was revealed that Retinz was the real Mr. Reus and that he intended to frame Trucy to get his revenge on the Gramaryes after having been fired and erased from the troupe.

Name[]

Showscript

Show script.

  • The show's name is likely intended to be a reference to the novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (commonly referred to as Alice in Wonderland) by Charles L. Dodgson, also known as Lewis Carroll. Trucy even wears an outfit similar Alice before Mr. Reus breathes fire on her.
