Description
Simple directions and clearly drawn diagrams enable beginners to master a host of dazzling deceptions: passing objects through solid barriers, cutting and restoring a length of rope, card tricks featuring the “magnetic touch,” and lots of more. Young magicians will also find complete directions for performing “The Spirit of Isis” — a dramatic tour de force in which one figure seemingly becomes another.
Step-by-step instructions demonstrate each and every step of the learning process — from understanding the effect to be achieved to successfully performing the trick itself. Mr. Kronzek, a professional magician, provides a large number of helpful hints and secrets of the trade, including how to misdirect the audience’s attention, practicing deception at the same time as handling props and equipment and how to develop a natural approach and smooth line of “patter.”
With this book and a bit of practice, young would-be magicians will soon be on their way to mastering a take hold of-bag full of tricks as a way to astonish and delight friends and family alike.
