Magic Tricks

Mark Leveridge shares his approach to close up magic, as it applies to:

* Walkabout (where all audience members are standing),
* Table hopping (working at large dinner function tables),
* Restaurant (entertaining at small tables in restaurants and hotel dining rooms),
* Formal close-up show (one off set piece magic on a close up pad),
* Trade show (using close up to promote companies).

The effects themselves are relatively simple and not intended to fool magicians, but rather entertain lay people in the above venues. Mark is both entertaining and fun to watch. If you work in any of the above venues, I think you will find effects to add to your repertoire.
