Recap by Gregory Wilson
- Thread starter Robert " The Mystifyer"
- Start date
I actually just started working on this. I really like it, but I've changed it around a bit. I don't wear a watch so I thought of my own final phase in which the pen disappears and I also added a production of the pen and a phase inspired by Dan Hauss' Redline where the cap flies back onto the pen.
It's a funny routine.
Ben Long can we talk about this one more? I've been trying to come up with a good watchless finish.
PM me.

I love RECAP, of Greg's work, it's probably the routine of his I use most (well, perhaps Molotov Cocktail... or...).
I love Greg's work. I like to think of this routine as sort of a counterpart to the amvitious card in terms of 'Impromptu' work (or even just generalised work without cards or coins...). Once you have the routine down, why not throw in a flipstick vanish... why not push the pen up your nose? It leaves a lot of room for jamming.
I have a few alternate endings, I love this routine!

It gets great reactions. It's not a card trick. It's not a coin trick. It's not special prop. It's just a PEN. The best part is that it can be someones personal pen and they never even thought of it can be use that way.
I always carry one in my pocket.... It's really great.

I love it, it's a fantastic routine, easy to do, and people love it. In fact, all of Wilson's On the Spot is great.

I was thinking of adding a little bit of a "psychic" in the routine by bending the pen visually in the spectators hand.

Actually, if you don't mind, I'd love to use that idea. You could do a "rubber pen" gag and then the pen actually melts in the middle.
No problem..

I just worked out a handling and it looks pretty good. It basically just uses ratcheting, but I think the impossibility factor is ramped up considering I'm using a pen that should just snap in half when bent.
i would reccomend buying Write angle by Jesse feinberg
