An act?? There's enough there for a touring show! Go to it and make sure we get first dibs on half price tickets - and large burkers all round in the interval please!

Then there is the production Piza that is on the market, and some of the ideas in a.o.a, with mcdonalds paper drinks cups.

Make up some fake gurkins, and do multiplying pickles, a-la cigar manipulations.

Mark Shortland does a misers dream with cookies

The possibilities are endless.

Check out Ignis Fatuus, by Zach Allen

Under Part 4 – Miscellaneous Effects.

There's a routine (Number 2!) called Ham and Rye (A Sandwich routine?)

Bananafish said
Well, to call this a Sandwich routine is a little bizarre, as it actually uses a real sandwich. It’s more of a joke effect that could go down quite well when being performed at your local Magic Society, or at least to other magicians, but probably not an awful lot of point above that. It did make me smile though, so was well worth being included.


Another one, probably best for those who are legally old enough to buy booze (!) would be Jiggernaut - a cups and balls routine using only a barman's cocktail jigger and (fake) olives. I did a review last year somewhere and it's a great routine.
