Okay, Here we go...
Honestly, you just have to do it. After the first person, I swear to God, it will be as easy as breathing. You just have to get passed that first person... I remembered the first time I decided to do street magic, I wasted an hour just sitting there because I was so nervous ( You will probably the same way)... And I decided to go for it. And luckily, they wanted to see magic!
Side notes::
* You are going to get rejected a million times. People are generally busy. Performing at a fair is ideal by the way.
*Don't get discourage when you get rejected 10x's in a row. Trust me you are going to get pissed.
*You are probably going to get the shakes while you perform. That will go away over time. There isn't a remedy for that. except for experience.
*Sometimes your effects will go wrong (about 10%-5% of the time.) Have a back up. My back up is "Hand To Mouth" By: Dan & Dave. Be prepared for that because it is going to happen.
* Know what you are saying. No "Um's" ,"Uh's". You know what I mean? I am not saying have a set patter. (I am even against that).
*Despite what people say being your self is NOT overrated. Don't get a character unless it's your self. You want to be seen as a Magician as a whole, not a guy who can do magic. There is a difference.
