Once again I am embarking on a continuation of my last lecture tour. This will take place during April and May. Perhaps early June. This is the same lecture (with a few revisions and new effects) I did last year and am looking for towns I missed last year.
The tour will encompass the entire East coast running from Maine to Florida. This means the entire eastern third of the country including the states over such as TN, AK, KY, etc. If your group missed getting a date last year, then contact me ASAP as dates will quickly fill up. If you are not the contact person for lectures, then please forward this to the proper person. PM if interest. Here is the breakdown: ________________________________________________ The Devin Knight lecture is a combination of Comedy, Close-up, Stage Magic and Mentalism. There is something for everyone in the lecture. Devin’s effects rely on clever methods instead of skill. Most of the effects fooled the majority of magician watching last year. Dissolving Aces: An incredible vanish of the 4 Aces one at a time. No deck used, only two hands and four cards. At the end, your hands are empty and your sleeves rolled up. Vernon gave this high praise. Food for Thought: A person thinks of a food from a menu and visualizes it on a plate. The performer, with no fishing, reveals the food. For a kicker the performer shows he predicted the chosen food! Impossible Prediction: The spectator selects a card from a face up deck. NO FORCE. A folded card previously placed in a sealed box proves to be an identical card. No switches and the performer does not touch the folded card. VERY BAFFLING Sanda-Panda: Any card is named. NO RESTRICTIONS. Spectators opens a box in full view and finds a deck of cards with a note. The note says the named card is (for example) 17 from the top. The person counts down 17 cards and finds the card just named. Magician never touches the deck or note. Improved Baby Gag: The old Baby Gag on steroids, and how to make it. New expanded routine with new topical jokes. For a climax, the named person’s adult photo is found in the envelope. NO PRESHOW work. Around the Square: A greatly improved version of Squarcle without the angle problems. You will love this new version. A square is cut out of a newspaper, the cut out hole turns out to be a circle. New Method and includes a comedy prediction where magician appears to be wrong but is correct. Salt to Bulb: Go into any home and ask someone to remove a light bulb from a burning lamp. You place the bulb into a paper bag and vanish an entire shaker of salt. The bulb is removed (bag shown empty) and the bulb is full of salt. You can also do Milk In Bulb without any expensive props. Random Thoughts: A newspaper is torn into 16 pieces. Any number chosen and counted down to. The piece at that position is given to a person who freely chooses a word from EITHER SIDE. That word is found in an envelope that has been in full view the entire time. No Secret writing. A NEW METHOD that is Easy to Learn. Predictionary: How to do this marketed effect and make it up for pennies. A person calls out any word. That word is found to be the only circled word in a dictionary. No nail writer. New Method. PAINT SURPRISE: Another marketed effect explained so you can make it up for a few dollars. A borrowed ring ends up inside a spray paint can. It is sprayed out where it visibly changes back into a ring. NO ACTUAL paint is used. Extremely Baffling Outta Sight: Devin’s version of the Toss Out Deck. With this version the deck is examined and shuffle. Three people each peek at a card and the performer tells each person something about the chosen card finally revealing all three cards. This fooled almost every magician who saw it. FarSight: A real magician fooler. Reveal a freely chosen card from 20 feet away without touching the cards at any time. Devin’s most famous effect that stunned magicians worldwide. Fully explained. Chess Gambit: A spectator removes any chess piece from a chessboard and hides it in a bag. A chess book previously given to an audience member to circle a chess piece (prior to the show) is brought onstage. The piece the spectator circled is the same piece that the first participant put into the bag. A real show stopper that is 100% hands off! |
