Were into the finals of this shin dig and weeeeeeeeeee have NO CLUE what to do. Our budget, $500, which is the good news. The bad news, we have to perform on November 1st! thanks guys any comments will help!

i wrote this in another thread..

You guys can do walk around magic..I did that..If it's like a 5 minute performance then you can perform the material that you know..

Go with funny... Nothing is better than funny magic. Whether it be a ridiculous quickchange number or a spicy samba number.... You have to make it funny now.

Headline predictions are hard-hitting and commercial effects.

That's a great idea to go with. It made me think of the Vanishing Bandanna trick. I suggest you pick that up if you want comedy.
I suggest getting some other material also because there's no way this alone will beat out Metamorphosis.

i have the vanishing bandana, perform it all the time , pure gold of course. My audience is a more mature one though and i will be infront of a panel of judges, do you think that something like the bandana is fitting to adults? Also, we are a duo and we would need something that we could both participate in... thanks alot guys your giving us TONS of great ideas already

I think your right, as the vanishing bandanna is a great trick, I don't think it would go so well in front of judges plus with your friend with nothing to do.

Here's something I dug up to give you an idea for an act. These guys are funny. Be sure to check out the other videos on youtube. Check it out!
