I hate it when a show gets canceled. But I can accept it. A required precaution. I try to be a responsible human. And this makes me wonder? As a performer should I be taking more precautions?
I have spent many hours refining presentations for close-up, to put magic in the spectator's hand. For a parlor audience I like to get them involved 'on-stage' to make a strong connection with them. During kid shows I shoot for 100% interaction. All require invading personal space and often contact. Should I now reverse the process, limit contact with audience and props? Have you had these thoughts?
A responsible member of society would take precautions. I found some presentations, by making a little adjustment I can limit space invasion. (Okay that sounds weird, but you know.) And, I can clean props after use. Oh yeah, wash my hands too.
Then I thought of the perfect effect. The Invisible Card. The audience never touches the prop, that secret thing. They don't even know about it. And the invisible deck provided by T11 is totally germ free. You don't need another reason to do this trick, cause it kills Muggles. But, there you are. I am sure there are many other examples. What you got?
