I think it might help us to know a little bit more about the show itself.....what type of effects are you using, etc?

I am presuming you have some kind of camera/tv set up? This seems more like close up work to me and is hard to do a whole show of close up work for that many people without a camera set up to show the audience a close up view?
Obviously it can work but is alot more difficult than doing more stage orientated magic

Actually i have 2 shows. First is for 20-25 people and it lasts only for 10-15 mins. On the second show, there are about 80 people and it lasts for 30 mins. That one has also camera and other needed stuff.

So much about the stage magic that i can perform the first illusion at the end of the year because it needs building, a lot of experiense, practice and money ofcourse.

At the moment i would like tips for the first 2 shows.

Thanks!

How abouts looking at some sponge balls and ropes, they could work very nicely infront of an audience.
