What if you are not enterteining them and they are bored? Would you stick to your material or try something on the fly?
Heck no if my participants are bored I best adapt and change myself to make the time more entertaining.
What if you were given 50 grand to do a one hour special exposing effects that the producers want on national television would you do it?
Keep in mind it may get you exposure to the public, but you will also be viewed lower in the magic community. The producers are into the mainstream street magic stuff so they want you to expose things like Pressure.
