Good info on this seems to be thin on the ground, so I'm asking you guy's for a bit of help here.
Please feel free to P.M. me. I'm looking for Flea Circus Routines and funny Gags. I just want the whole thing to be memorable and Fun-Packed ! I'm sure that no matter how much I can think up, there must be lot's out there that I could add to it. O.K. Guy's, can we go for this one ? Anyone willing to contribute ? Any help will be very much appreciated. Thank you !

What kind of routines are you looking for? Magic related or only flea circus related?

Hi James.
Flea Circus related, and fun stuff.

Hope I can think of something. That's because I don't own a flea circus and have never done that kind of work before.

Here are some gags I have used (and in the case of Mellers, have not used but learned about . . .)
I don't really have a formal routine for them . . . I just add 'em on as I go. 1) http://www.practical-magic.com/index.php......temid=26 Magic Marksman for cannonball flea through balloon and into apple 2) http://www.hanklee.org/xcart/product.php?productid=5450 silk to apple (flea carrying silk through cannon ball and through Magic Marksman to apple) For kids 3) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3T354dU9pI dog puppet (where do the fleas come from?) 4) http://www.learnmagictricks.org/stevefea......ion.html have fleas "lift" you via Fearson's Levitation box - I made one myself with my local mirror cutter, but still haven't perfected moves for getting in and out 5) https://www.bobkohlermagic.com/view-product.cfm?productID=61 fleas ring bell to start trick (Wenger spirit bell) also, 6) high dive http://www.stevejonesproductions.com/Flea%20Pole%20125.htm and stiff rope 7) http://www.timsonefelt.com/cgi-bin/magic......:under50 stiff rope routine 8) Also, I forgot the "rising deck" card tricks (fleas pick cards - I saw Bruce Kalver do this but don't know which rising deck howlette he used - maybe Mikame's)? 9) Mel Meller's Fantastic Flea Finale on his new DVD That's about all I've got. . .look forward to seeing what others come up with. Best of luck. Mumblemore |

Mumblemore These are such great routines for a magical related circus. Thanks so much. A lot of the items I did not even begin to think of.

PSYSHADOW,
Everyone's been pitching in. What have you come up with on your own that you can also contribute??? What funny gags have you come up with? Please list them all in a list. You have been putting time into this, correct?? You've not just asked people for all their great ideas without being willing to add any of your own, have you? If this is important to you, you must have a notebook of ideas. Please type in all your ideas (especially the extra funny stuff) so we can all use them. Thanks!

Frank, I've not even started yet on a notebook as it's difficult to find the time at the moment. But "Yes" I will be only too happy to share ideas and gags in due course.
I was merely looking for 'ready-made' ideas that I could build on but, as I said, there is a shortage of info out there.

There isn't a shortage of ideas. Only a shortage of folks with really good ideas that are willing to just give them away for free to anyone who asks.
The really good ideas take years of blood sweat and tears to polish. Nobody gives that stuff away.

Sorry Frank if you find my request in some way offensive.
However, I'm glad to say that I have helped many people on these boards, and others, and have received help in return, several times. There are those of us who are more than willing to share their years of efforts of 'blood, sweat, and tears' for the greater advancement of our craft and artistry. I'm sorry if you do not agree with this pattern, but it has, in my experience benefited all when we share ideas etc., and that, really, is what these boards are all about, helping each other.

We have been selling Flea Circuses now at http://www.yourfleacircus.com for just over 3 years and have orders up to October now. I want to give the subscribers to this group notice that I will be advertising in MAGIC magazine soon and expect a few orders from that.
If you want a Cigar Box or Mossman Flea Circus I would advise you to contact me now to order. Every week I get an email asking if we have any in stock and I have to advise they are all made to order. If you want one ready for next Summer’s shows then don’t delay – just think…if I only get 9 orders from the advert then you wouldn’t get one in time! Email me direct at martin@martinduffy.com for the latest newsletter and pictures of recent Flea Circuses |
