Hello Everyone!

I must warn this is a rather indulgent post but... oh well.

This November I'm performing in a stage competition.

I'm really excited because it's a story telling routine and I don't do much of that.

This is the first routine of it's kind that I have performed. It's about a man who visit's the a the Philippines and falls ill in the jungle. Hunters from a nearby village find him and bring him back where he is healed (see potions below)

Then the story takes some irrelevant twists and it concludes with a bizarre routine much like this (see the cup with the chips)

It's very cool looking and like I said it's just a rather indulgent post but I'm so excited that it all came together as expected I needed to post pictures as well.







Box



Overhead View




Everything





Cup and Chips

This is an very intresting trick, did you make this all yourself?

Nice piece of kit, Ian!

Those props look great Ian, very mysterious. Best of luck with your performance in November, hope everything goes well. jim

Nice. You do need to age the hinges on the box a bit, and make the over all appearence of the box a bit grubby and battered.

Looks great is the competition going to be videoed as I would love to watch the presentation of the routine.

I think we have a young Christian Chelman in the making! Best of luck Ian!

Thanks!

I didn't make the box, found that at a thrift store for $2 and couldn't pass it up.

I did make the shrunken head and wooden chips though.


I didn't even think about the hinges... Thanks Dale.

Not 100% sure if it will be filmed but I will do my best; don't expect it though.

I won't expect it mate just by the looks of the props your going to knock em dead and as being into magic (obviously or I wouldnt be on here) Wouldnt mind seeing them in action.

Rather ticked at the moment because I had to remove the beginning of the act as a result of time constraints in the competition.

Nice props Ian!!!!

Thanks Dat!

Thanks for everyone's nice comments. Going to a convention in 17 hours and T-minus 30 hours until show time. Wish me luck, and first place.

Best of luck Ian, go wow them with your magic!

That's the plan.
