Will you be in the Windy City this weekend? Here is what is going on at Magic Inc. We would love to have you.
The shop is open until 9pm on Friday. David Parr is lecturing Saturday 9/17 at 2:30pm. The shop is open Sunday from 12-5pm Here are the specifics on David Parr's lecture... The Halloween season is upon us. How many times have you been asked to perform something in a formal or casual setting at this time of year and wish you had something...haunting, spooky or a little weird? Well this upcoming Hardcore Lecture is for you. We have scheduled it a month before Halloween so you can practice these effects. David Parr's work is very straight forward with a minimum of sleights and it lends itself to the occasion. Don't miss out! HARDCORE LECTURE GROUP @ Magic Inc. PRESENTS: A Lecture By David Parr Saturday, September 17 at 2:30 PM In the spirit of the approaching season, David Parr shares his thoughts on giving our magic that Halloween feeling. David's approach can best be described as 'playfully macabre,' a strategy that has served him well in writing, directing and performing over a decade of successful Halloween shows, including 'Haunting History', featured in the January 2005 issue of 'The Linking Ring'. In addition to offering valuable insights into creating and performing weird magic, David will share some delightfully strange effects from his own repertoire!

The David Parr lecture on Saturday does sound like fun!
And if you'll be in town for that, consider seeing me on Friday night in the longest-running theatrical magic show in the city, "Supernatural Chicago." It's in its second year of performances, every Friday night at 8pm. The location: the reputedly haunted Excalibur nightclub, 632 N. Dearborn (at Ontario), as seen on The Travel Channel, A&E, and the DVD release of the Michael Keaton thriller, "White Noise." The Chicago Tribune/Red Eye edition promises "He'll teach you about Chicago's paranormal history and get you involved in psychic experiments that put Jedi mind tricks to shame."

Just keep that King out of your eye, Reis. It's not safe.

Reis-
Glad to see you have FINALLY got a job! You cannot keep a good man down! Are you coming to the lecture or are the MASTERS in control of your day?

P.T.! You know I've had a job with Pedro at the Pier for a while now. How else would I be able to afford Magic Inc.'s sponge bananas?
No, no lecture for me. The Masters own my soul! |

And look for me wandering around Andersonville (Clark just north of Foster) doing my business man thing as well (client meetings and such)! Which means that I have to miss Maestro Parr's lecture (again, *^&#%@ it!).

You all missed a wonderful lecture. You should be ashamed...

Thanks for the report, P.T. I do wish I had been there.
But ashamed? No. If you want to talk about shame, consider that my weekly bizarre/mentalism show is the longest-running theatrical magic show in a downtown Chicago venue — yet the number of magicians who have attended and shown support for it since its opening on Friday the 13th of February, 2004 is probably substantially fewer than the number who showed up at your magic shop to learn a few tricks last weekend. So, when are you coming to the show, P.T.? Best, Neil

Hmmm, I not only attended Parr's most-excellent lecture, I've seen Supernatural Chicago. Do I get some sort of über-geek magician prize?

Gordon, you win! (Reis has your Magic Masters gift certificate.)
Reis, you win too! (Gordon has your "All Weather Dove Cote Plans," whatever they are.) Thanks to you both for supporting theatrical magic performance in Chicago. Best, Neil

Neil-
I am ashamed to say that my schedule makes Fridays at 8pm almost impossible. Maybe I can book you at Magic Inc? Then we can book it as a lecture/ slash talk about the show? Get a bunch of magi to show....HMMM....NOW we are cooking with gas....drop me a line....I think maybe we are on to something... magic@ptmurphy.com Yours, P.T.
