    Are amusement parks good places to perform magic to strangers?

    Having worked at an amusement park for 10 years of my life i can definately agree with what @ChristopherT has said. 99.9% of the time they will not want you to perform there at all unless you are under contract with them.

    When serious spectators question the reality of magic...?

    Sure. I would tell them the trueth, that what I do is create the illusion of inpossiblity by performing that which they csnnot explain. The idea is to give them this feeling of wonder. It takes several years to perfect this art. I would not lie to them and say it is real. That will only cause...

    Would a Café where all the waiters are magicians work?

    You could always hire actual magicians as atmosphere entertainment (ie barback magician, strolling magicians, standup performances certain times a day, etc.) This way all the wait staff will be able to do something magic related and you won't have to worry about running out of magicians to hire...

    Would a Café where all the waiters are magicians work?

    What exactly is “Organic Magic”?

    To me, organic has always meant natural to the environment you are performing. A coffee cup at a starbucks would be considered organic. Using earbuds to do a cut and restored rope routine would be considered organic. Tic tac box would be considered organic. I do agree though that the term has...

    Heckler Killers

    I usually kill them with kindness. ;) they feel like A Holes and stop bothering me. Also what David said above... if you are noticing an influx of hecklers, it may be because you are unintentionally inviting them. Unless you are like Joe Rogan and baiting and destroying hecklers is like your...

    Sleight of Hand VS Gimmicks

    I thought this would make for some interresting discussion. Some people seem to swear by sleight if hand, claiming those who use gimmicks are lazy. Others say that gimmicks make a performance look more natural. What do you guys think? Which is better? SOH? Gimmicks? Maybe a bit of both? Does it...

    Doing my best tl think outside the box and push the envelope here!

    I really am! I will admit this may not be my best routine yet, but it is a different idea that I have been playing with. Thought I would both share my idea as well as ask others if they want to post their own out of the box ideas as well! Take things that most people perform and try to...

    How to mark cards?

    I agree. Or just use a sharpie and use the clock system with regular old bicycle cards. Can even create your own system if you want. If you want something quick and easy, id just buy a marked deck.
