Assistants nightmare

Postby magic_chocice » Nov 28th, '11, 18:01



Hey guys and gals,

Sorry to bother you. I have no real experience in illusions but have been asked by the producer of this years Panto whether there is anywhere to hire illusions from (specifically assistants revenge). Any of you illusionist types have any ideas?

Regards,

yes there are.
Naturaly it depends on your budget, and your location.
(I see your in my neck of the woods.)
Scott Penrose hires out. If your budget and runtime justifies using him, i think you will find him the best there is.

Peter Hart, ( also local.. twyford i think) Also may be able to assist.I think He used to help out Marlow.
Failing that, if you have crew who can build, why not have something made up? you just need to find somebody who can advise on such things.:)

Thank you very much I shall try and contact them. The Panto is in Cheshire, so this may be a problem. But I can always ask.
