patrick page comedy colour changing handkerchief

Postby ledmello » Jun 29th, '10, 15:45



Could anyone please tell me where I can learn Patrick Page's colour changing silk/handkerchief routine. It's on YouTube and one poster seems to think it is not on secret seminars but on an old tape called Patrick Page Magic Routines.
If this is true where can I find that tape? Or is it taught in a book?

Thanks for your help/time,
Lawrence

well....
the moves in this routine are more or less teh standard moves, so what i advise is you get a copy of rice encyclopedia of silk magic volume 2, and learn the moves from there.

However Pat's routine is NOT in there.

you would need to reffer back to the youtube clip, and pick up the routine directly from Pat.
otherwise, I believe pats routine features on the pageboy speaks dvd.Which is nigh on impossible to find.
And he may also of published this in his column in Pabular.
It also featured in his lectures, so there may be a set of notes out there with it in...

Good hunting. :)

you're like Yoda.you dont say much, but what you do say is worth listening to....

This is virtually identical to Jack Le Dair's Sucker Silk trick. It isn't Pat Page's routine. There is a full description of it in the Ken Brooke book called "The Unique Years". Billy Mc'Comb has also published his version. Billy has added a half dyed silk to the routine.

I do this trick all the time and have expanded it even further.

Pat Pages Comedy Colour Changing Silk

And Jack Le Dair obtained the routine from Tom Waterman--this was somewhere in Davenport's Demon Telegraphs--aeons ago.

Billy Mc. Comb details all his version, under the title: 'Half Dyed Silk', in his book: 'McCombs Magic; 25 Years Wiser' published by Supreme.
Look on pages: 41 to 48.
Having just looked up the pages I read that Billy also mentions Jack Le Dair got it from Tom Waterman.

In Pat P's Lecture Notes, under Colour Changing Handkerchief,he writes a page on his routine.
