Hi Everyone,
Here is my performance at my school's talent show on April 25, 2013! When I rehearsed for this routine, my performance only lasts for about 5 minutes but here in the actual show, my performance is almost 10 minutes long! I believe this is because I tell a lot of jokes and instead of focusing on the effect, I focus on my presentation and the interaction with my audience.
This is my last performance in my high school before I graduated and I believe it is my number one best.
Nevertheless, I still believe that there are room for improvements so I'm looking forward to any feedback!
All the Best,
Pete Pridanonda

If you don't mind me asking what is the origin of that Rope routine I would love to purchase it and learn more about it, that was hilarious!

Even though your presentation of the rope escape isn't original ;) , it's still a great performance!
I really enjoyed watching this!

You can learn this routine from Tony Clark's "In & Out Rope Escape DVD"

Pete, well done. You're personality shines on stage and the crowd loves you. I liked both pieces you selected however the only thing I would change is the selection process of the team. Nobody in the audience can see what is written on the cards which allows for a little bit of scrutiny. I would force the team with larger props that the entire audience can see if possible. Other than that, congrats man.

Sorry everyone for the late reply! I was having trouble logging into my account these past few days but thanks to Lyle Borders, he fixed this problem for me.

This rope routine is my handling of Tony Clark's "In and Out Rope Escape". I'm not able to get this effect to work by following his steps but you might be able to. His hands are palm up while mine is palm down, that is the only change I've made and to my surprise, I'm finally able to perform this effect!

Thank you very much Colin, I had a blast performing as well! Usually after the show people asked me "How did you do that?" or "Wow, you fooled me", but this time, the comments I got were "I was absolutely entertained!" and "Your show is phenomenal!".
