    Putting a Show Together... HELP!!!

    Can you please list out some of your best material so we can help you? In a half hour time slot you should be able to entertain with about 6-8 effects. There is no need to cram in 20 things and go as fast as you can go. Many amateurs do this and don't make that audience connection at all. It's...

    The Golden key

    I used to perform this a lot. Super simple and blows people away. I loved it. Penguin used to sell it as did Amazon and a few other places, but currently looks out of stock.

    Putting a Show Together... HELP!!!

    I'm just going to be honest. A half hour of "mentalist theme" magic isn't going to play well unless you have props and items to be seen as Obrien has stated. Audiences want to see "things". I know that sound really lame, but if they don't see props and or items up on your stage they feel like...

    Putting a Show Together... HELP!!!

    Christopher already beat me to the punch. You never book yourself a show if you don't even "have" a show yet. That being said, since you are hired its down to crunch time. Start giving us details ASAP. How many people? Audience age/description? Venue? How long are you on for?

    Elmwood magic

    Elmwood Magic typically has good products. Paul Richards is a really good guy and demonstrator. I used to buy products from his booth at conventions but haven't been to any lately. I think back in 2014 he basically teamed up with Penguin and they handle his products now.

    Card tricks for a stage act

    Also, I don't want to beat a dead horse but please please please practice your act with the camera crew so they know EXACTLY how the effects should look and where they are supposed to stand, angles, and such. I've been to too many shows where the camera crew hadn't rehearsed, the camera kept...

One thing to keep in mind is sometimes you will get a better response from members here if you "ask" rather than say "give...

    loss in interest for magic

    This happens to all of us. There are many avenues you can take. Take a break completely from magic and just enjoy life or another hobby and come back to magic. It will always be here for you. Or...change what you are working on in magic. Maybe try rope magic or coin magic or other magic with...

    Are There Any Online Magician Communities?

    I know you said you are too far away to drive to a meeting. Have you attended conventions before? Just curious. They usually last an entire weekend are well worth the time, money and are a lot of fun.

    Music performance with magic

    My mentor, Ed Ellis, who is a magician and drummer makes the spectators card vanish, then stabs his drumstick through the top of the drum and produces their card. Yep!

    Has This Been Done?

    David is correct. If its already on a slip of paper, then you clearly knew it and forced it. Less is more in this type of effect.

    Spectator's forces

    In my opinion both cut deeper and criss cross force work well although the cut deeper principle is LESS known to laymen. Criss cross force requires a little bit of patter and coming back to the deck in order to work.

    death by magic, thoughts.

    I've completed this series as well with my wife and she thought it was so so. She knows how a lot of magic works and some of it she enjoyed and some of it she has seen me and other magicians do just as well. I like his character and storyline; however I didn't like all of his street magic. A LOT...

    Starting a YouTube channel

    I will give you my opinion, but be prepared to not agree or like it. My opinion is that a Youtube channel "may" get you exposure, but it won't even come close to being as beneficial as you getting out on the streets and performing live for laymen. This will teach you so much more than standing...
