No Card magic - unless a packet trick.

Which commercial magic has stayed in your repertoire year after year... (or the last 12 months at least)?

Easy to master, easy to reset and plays big to a lay audience close up...

Your top fives please.

Bertoneski - may i ask why you want to know what others do?

what do you do?

by **Bertoneski** » May 2nd, '10, 20:44

I have had a twenty year absence from magic - see my introduction.

My props and effects are therefore 20 years old.

In the three months that I have renewed my acquaintance with this noble art/expensive hobby/infuriating obsesion I have been overwhelmed by how much magic is out there and how so much has changed.

I would rather investigate - from the pros - what effects they find reliable before purchasing.

For the record my repertoire is:

Disappearing Salt (TT)

Borrowed ring through borrowed spoon.

Pencil through £10 note (Tom Mullica)

Schrodinger's cat - a routine with black spongeballs.

Gypsy Monte - R.Paul Wilson

ESP - International Magic (Not with ESP2 - working on that)

Iain I don'tget to see many magicians performing live and want I thought this might be a good place to ask...in case you thought I might be wanting to buy up and replicate someones entire routine... I don't. I wanted to hear about real life experience.

i was just curious

by **daleshrimpton** » May 2nd, '10, 21:01

you know,What's most important is that you do the magic well.
The Audience, probably have seen very little magic live. To them, what you do is new. I would be inclined to update the presentations, and keep the props looking new, rather than going out and buying a whole new load of props.

we can chat about this at home counties some time

Andrew Normansell's Club Sandwich is a great opener and I've used it for years now. Very easy to do.

It's hard to believe but no one posted a vote for that most ripped-off of all tricks -- Bob Carver's Professor's Nitemare!
