If I can work my schedule around a few things, I'll have a gig doing table magic during a Frank Sinatra-style singer's breaks. It could end up being a monthly thing. The total time would only be 20 minutes (he takes 2 10 minute breaks). I'd be paid $25 plus a meal.
Here's the questions: The majority of the tricks I know are card tricks.. I know only 4-5 tricks that are not card related. How should I space them out? 10 minutes of cards then 10 minutes of other tricks, or a bit here, a bit there? The age demographic is apparently 50+.. Any suggestions for tricks for that age group would be appreciated as well.
Also, would you suggest a running theme for patter, or just trick-specific patter?
One last one: If I'm doing a show per month, should those shows be completely different? Or just switch out a few tricks with ones that I haven't done?
Thanks!
