"Hannibal combines wonderful magical effects with masterful presentations and storytelling. Watching these DVDs will make your magic stronger."
- Jon Allen

"When learning how I perform magic in restaurants a decade ago, I was offered Jim Sisti's The Magic Menu. Of all the routines I studied, nothing pulled me in like the work of Hannibal. I always wondered what routines like The Pringles Act looked like live. Here is an opportunity to see a TRUE master at work. This set should be in EVERY MAGICIAN'S library."
- Eric Jones

"That was just delightful!"
- Max Maven

"The Pringles Act is pure genius."
- Anthony Asimov

"A perfect combination of mystery, comedy and emotion. Hannibal is one of magic's premier storytellers who will pull your heartstrings and surprise you with real mystery along the way. His take on 'The Bill in Lemon' is one of the best theatrical presentations for this effect you will ever see!"
- Scott Robinson

"Hannibal is a great magician but, more importantly, he's a master entertainer. He connects with his audience in a way few others understand. He 'gets it'. And you will understand that when you see this video. I am first in line for this."
- Doc Eason

"I shipped my pants!"
- Kozmo

VOLUME ONE

Silver Memories

The classic "Coin and Cylinder" routine gets infused with heart and soul. Highly visual, unforgettable magic that creates an immediate emotional connection with the audience.

Bookends (aka "Elf Boots")
Hannibal's original treatise on the 'Signed Bill To Impossible Location' premise that involves origami, charming storytelling, and 'Magical Mystery Gifts' that the spectators take home.

Roadhouse
With a focus on performance, this is Hannibal's hilarious version of "Cards Across" that can be performed in a small group or on the largest stage.

VOLUME TWO

The Pringles Act

Hannibal's entire prize-winning nine-phase powerhouse routine using a deck of cards and a Pringles chip can. With color changes, transpositions, mind-reading and a surprise ending, it's an epic time-tested crowd pleaser.

This Strange Engine
In this knock-em-dead-in-their-seats card routine using multiple spectators, you'll discover a clever "certain something" that you'll never want to be without.

Golden Memories
Hannibal's version of the classic trick, "3 Bread Crumbs" by Rene Lavand. Hannibal imbues it with whimsy and music, and adds a killer ending.

Available in 2-DVD set or as single volumes.

I can honestly say I loved every moment on this DVD. Hannibal is a deep thinker and puts a lot of effort into the entertainment and meaning within his show.

What you are seeing is the result of a consistent effort to improve the minor details within an effect. He's tailored his routines to fit his style, persona and life. These routines are truly artful which is something most magic is lacking; he adds himself into the routines. When you see Hannibal perform, you are seeing Hannibal's life unfold.

If you aren't inspired to be a better magician after watching this... You're nuts.

Best dvd set of the year. Top notch material and a master class in how to construct a cohesive act that flows and uses call-backs to make the act memorable.

I have personally known Hannibal for a couple of years and perform the same venue as him for this past season at the local Renaissance Festival. He has invited me to attend a street performing gathering locally and has invited me to the magic club he attends. He has been a tremendous inspiration to me and making my magic stronger. I have his lecture notes and everything he does is just as strong as it possibly could be. I really believe he is the best local magician in my area. The material presented here I have seen him do over and over and over. A lot of it I still can not figure out so I am thankful he released these DVD's. Chris is a marvelous performer, a fantastic storyteller, and an extremely entertaining performer. Whether you catch him on the street, or in a more formal environment, he will blow your mind not only with his magic, but also his charming personality and presentation. The sheer knowledge of magic and performing he possesses is beyond me. Do yourself a favor and pick this set up today. You will be glad you did! This is all winning material.
