Walk around - advice needed

Postby craigie » Dec 19th, '12, 19:32



Hi guys

Does anyone else have a problems of audience management during walk around. I hear dynamo got a hard time for it on a royal yacht and im pretty much in the same boat (boom boom).

Basically as soon as someone see's you doing a trick they flock to you and you end up feeling like a busker or doing a mini stage show than close up magic.

Any tips on keeping the vultures at bay?

Depending on the size of venue I think you have to keep moving - or literally hide in the toilets. For the limited free stuff I've done I've had the same problem. As soon as it gets too large, leg it and return somewhere else 5 minutes later. The fact that you're getting a crowd though is obviously testament to how good you are so you can take some positives from it!!

If you are doing it on the streets of Worcester, you may well have a shed load of rain to contend with as well. Good luck hope it goes well.
