Description
The storyline of Le Palais du Génie is about the spirit of a previous servant of the Sultan, who still houses in the Sultan's palace. When a monkey steals a lamp from a nearby market (seen alongside the queue outside) and brings the lamp into the palace, the genie from the lamp and the genie from the palace start fighting (the pre-show). During the main show, the fighting between the genies results in the house turning upside down.
The exit is unique for a Madhouse in that it features a slanted floor meant to disorient guests, similar to the illusion of a Casa Magnetica show.
The soundtrack is an adaptation of one of the tracks for Journey of Man (a Cirque du Soleil production, a circus theatre), composed by Benoit Jutras.
"Le Palais du Génie" is French for "The Palace of the Genie". The ride is also referred to as "Paleis van de Geest" in Dutch.
