From Denny & Lee...
SATURDAY & SUNDAY, JUNE 23 & 24 (DETAILS BELOW) RICK MAUE TWO DAY WORKSHOP AND SHOW ADMISSION $50.00 For more than three decades, Rick Maue crisscrossed the United States, performing his original creations for corporate audiences, at universities, and in small theaters. In addition, over the past ten years, he has taught many of his most popular pieces to magicians and mentalists all across the country, lecturing in 40 different states... including a collection of appearances at our shop here in Baltimore, and also at our Vegas location. Rick's lectures have always been some of our most talked about events due to his well-crafted routines, his attention to detail, and his constant willingness to share. In October of last year, Rick retired from the road after his record sixth appearance at MINDvention, in Las Vegas. However, since he didn't get the chance to say goodbye to friends and fans on the East Coast, he is coming to our Baltimore shop for one final event. And what an event it will be! Much more than just a lecture, Rick will be presenting a complete 2-day workshop on June 23rd & 24th, where he will be covering almost all of his best known creations, such as FATE, Terasabos, The Final Picture, The Journey, Imagine, Collect Call, Riding the Wave, Group Dynamic (including the highly sought unpublished version), Polygraphic (Rick's unpublished closer), Heads & Tales, as well as pieces from his best-selling Book Of HauntedMagick, and much, much more (in addition to a collection of other unpublished items). The event is scheduled to begin at 1:00 on Saturday afternoon (June 23rd), with the first workshop session ending around 6:00. Next, there will be a special performance at 8:00 on Saturday night. (The Saturday night show will be included in the cost of the workshop, however, additional tickets will also be available for individual purchase at $15.00 per person.) The final workshop session will begin on Sunday morning (June 24th) at 11:00, and it will officially end around 5:00. (However, Rick promises to hang around to answer any, and all, questions.) Finally, Rick's one stipulation was to avoid being one of those stereotypical over-priced workshops, so the cost for the entire event (both workshop sessions & the Saturday night show) is only $50.00 per person. (His philosophy is that he wants to keep the price down so that those that really wish to attend can do so without digging too deep into their own pockets.) Think about it, at just $50.00, that's less than $5.00 an hour to learn a lifetime's worth of great, real-world material. So the question is: Are you serious about magic and/or mentalism? If you are, then this is a deal that you just shouldn't pass up. In closing, for those that don't know, Rick calls his creations VdM Magic... which means, from a technical viewpoint, the Venus de Milo could do them. In other words, there are no difficult sleights. And, there is no need for any expensive props. Everything that you need comes from a regular office supply store, and that's why Michael Weber dubbed Rick “OfficeMax Maven”. Join us in June to see why for yourself. For more information, or to make your reservation, contact Denny at 410-686-3914. |

Wow! I urge everyone in a two hundred mile radius to make plans to see one of the most creative mentalist in the world... we were so fortunate to see Rick at MINDvention for many years and it won't be the same without him. His material is all solid, audience tested and doable and usable by anyone and what more could you ask for?
Don't kick yourself later when you hear what an incredible event you missed and make your plans to now to see a true Master of Mentalism. PS And to boot you also get a chance to visit one of the world's finest magic shops as well! |

I've heard that a Rick Maue lecture is one of the best available.

Thanks for the very nice words, Danny. I will certainly miss being a part of MINDvention, but hopefully, if I can, I will head that way in the future and take part in a "surprise" manner.
As for the upcoming workshop at Denny's, it will cover the majority of my material from over the years, in addition to a few unreleased items. However, in contrast to my regular lecture, I plan to go into much greater depth with the individual pieces, as well as the creative process, how to piece together a show, character development, marketing, etc... Simply put, it will be two complete days of how, and why, I became a professional mentalist. And like I have said before, the cost is only $50 per person (as opposed to the over-priced/over-hyped workshops that I usually hear about), so that the average person can truly afford to learn real-world, audience-tested material, plus the ins and outs of being a working pro. And, more importantly, the event will also give me a chance to say goodbye to friends on the East Coast. I'm really looking forward to it, and I hope a few of you are as well. Keep the change, Rick |

I am a close-up guy who has never performed any mentalism but I am going anyway. I'm getting a hotel room so I wont have to make the long drive.
I figure it may be a great way to get my feet wet. Hopefully it wont be over my head. Looking forward to it.
I am getting so tired of slitting the throats of people who say that I am a violent psychopath.

Slyhand,
I promise that the workshop will not be over your head. It will just be a vast collection of audience-tested pieces, and a lot of conversation about creating/presenting real-world mentalism. Much of what we will be talking about will be useful to magicians and mentalists alike. I only have two suggestions. Bring a notebook, and expect to have a lot of fun. See you in a couple of weeks, my friend. Keep the change, Rick |

I am giddy with anticipation as this lecture approaches. I've been looking forward to it for months, I can hardly sleep. Then again, after two days with you, I am headed to Virginia beach to spend two days learning another seance from a friend of yours so I may not be sleeping at all after an extremely spooky four days! Can't wait to see you!
