Bill...I just re-purchased Liability insurance with IBM for 2009-2010. The docs I signed stated that flash paper is allowed. Do you have any more info on this topic.

Thanks,

In California the requires a pyrotechnic performer license to use flash paper, but I have heard that they are very hard to get now. I have a basice commercial fireworks license in Ca. but it does not allow my to use flash paper, just large scale fireworks

It may be allowed; however, if you do something with flash paper that is either illegal or negligent, they will not cover you.

Check the policy and see if they cover acts of negligence or actions that are illegal.

Local ordinances may be different than what you think.

I've never cared for the use of flash paper, cotton, string or whatever in a close-up situation. Stage is different. You never know when you might have someone who is skittish about fire. Yes, even adults can be like that. How about someone who survived a house fire, they might not appreciate that coin vanishing in a flash of fire 6 inches from their face. Same goes for fire wallets. Many years ago, another magician came to the restaurant I perform in and asked if I had seen the newest gaffed wallet, I said no and as I leaned down, he lit the thing inches from my face. I told him I was not amused and don't come back in my place again.

I never thought you left it to eat. It is a territorial issue, it is a lot of things. It is just not something I recomend to people. Food is a very sensitive issue for many people.
