Jon Allen is one of my favorite magicians and this lecture was awesome. I had the privilege of
seeing him perform his lecture back in 2010 at Tannens magic shop in NYC. When I saw he was doing a
Penguin Live Lecture, I had to see it again. He teaches some great magic with cards, rubber bands,
some parlor stuff, stage, and mentalism so their is something for everyone.
I really
enjoyed his card stuff which includes a false cut, a fancy four card production and some single
effects. As Nathan said "The Buck Twins would be proud". Also as mentioned in previous reviews,
the card force at the end was amazing! Also another highlight was an thumb tip less 100 dollar bill
switch which was fabulous. That's right say that again.
On another note he did forget to
teach one of the card tricks he shown which would of been cool to learn and he didn't cover some
stuff that he did in NYC that would of been great. But overall I enjoy watching him perform, very
confident and experienced with a lot of great advance that you'll hear at the end during the Q and A
and I think you would get a lot out of this lecture.
If he lectures again, count me in.
