How exciting.

The UK's leading working magician will be revealing material from his number one set courtesy of Penguin Live.

I'll be in the front row (at my computer screen) for this one.

His work with envelopes is first class.

And his ring and string routine leaves all others standing.

See you there Tony.

I remember watching him do a wonderful Confabulation routine (amongst other fine routines) about 20 years ago.

So, I'm already paid up and looking forward to next Sunday.

I have purchased magic and chatted with him about all things magical and otherwise for the past twenty years. Many of his effects have made it into both my close up set and children's party's show. He may not be the most visual and loud magician around but his technical ability and overall affability makes him one of my magical heroes!
I'm looking forward eagerly to his Penguin lecture!

I thought that this was a fantastic lecture, and one of the best that I have seen at Penguin.
Most everything is well within the reach of any performer, all routines were well constructed, looked amazing, and were well taught.

What did he cover.
"The New York Papers," Mark Twain once said,"have long known that no large question is ever really settled until I have been consulted; it is the way they feel about it, and they show it by always sending to me when they get uneasy. "

What will he teach?

"The Five Aspects Of Close Up"

Mark will discuss five main situations that close-up is used in:

Walkabout (where all audience members are standing),

Table hopping (working at large dinner function tables),

Restaurant (entertaining at small tables in restaurants and hotel dining rooms),

Formal close-up show (one off set piece magic on a close up pad),

Trade show (using close up to promote companies).

For each of the five sections, Mark will be presenting and explaining at least three suitable effects including:

The Reds And The Blacks – a neat and effective combination of the Submarine Card and Oil And Water

Reality Check – killer coin routine for walkabout work with a stunning finish

Assembly Point – a cool coin matrix with a difference

Parade Of The Kings Remixed – a clever re-working of the classic card prediction effect that is smooth and convincing

Mindreading Teddy- a great example of how you can take a random object and devise a memorable routine with it

Co-inci-mental – an up-in-hands commercial colour changing deck routine which is fast and to the point


He covered all of the above.

Thanks for the nice comments, guys. I really enjoyed filming with Penguin. Couldn't believe that the lecture lasted 3 hours and then we had a further 30 mins with the interview at the close. Thought I'd feel wiped out afterwards but actually the time flashed by for me doing the lecture and I didn't even feel that tired. Adrenaline is a wonderful thing, eh?

Hey, does anyone know where I can buy the super jumbo coin for Reality Check?

Hi Mark

Welcome to the Café. Smile

Your lecture, put simply, was one of the best Penguin lectures ever.

Thanks for sharing so much of your working material and knowledge so freely.

Hope to see you around these boards more.

Jamie.
