Here Are Just A Few of the Routines Included This DVD Set

Stand Up Show

Lemonade Racket
This really is a killer of an opener and visual magic at its best. Telling a story about starting your own lemonade stand you produce a lemon. This gets a great reaction but the kicker will floor your audience as you now produce a full glass of Lemonade!!

Spooning
One of the most visual spoon bends I have ever seen and the best part is you can give the bent spoon away afterwards!!

Revenge of the Spoon
This is a great follow up to Spooning. You draw a picture of a straight spoon (which your spectator signs) and you now make the drawing of the spoon bend!! The best part is you can tear the sheet of paper containing the bent spoon and your spectator's signature off and give it to them as a souvenir

Ring In Kinder Egg
WOW this really is one the most commercial versions of ring to impossible location I have ever seen and it make perfect sense!

Pit Boss
A fantastic triple prediction routine, that takes your audience on an imaginary trip to a Las Vegas casino. Talk about packs small, plays big! This effect can be performed in also any conditions including close up!

Close Up effects taught include: Pool Ball, Card Stab and Fish Tales

All performances are filmed in a real world environment with studio explanations in detail. If you are already a working pro or wanting to become one, then THIS IS THE DVD SET FOR YOU!
