Magic Tricks

I've seen quite a few Penguin Live lectures and I think this was perhaps the very best. Will's technique is stunningly good and his effects are intriguing, beautifully scripted and very magical. He imparts his profound knowledge of magic and its history in a delightfully arch and entertaining way. Will also talks about a wonderful project he is involved in called Breathe Arts Health Research, which, among other things, helps children with hemiplegia improve their muscular control through the learning of magic tricks. Inspiring.
