Comedy Magic in Magic & Conjuring: page 4

"Graham Hey is a master at taking long-forgotten methods and turning them in to modern gold! And D.N.A Clinic is fabulous!" says Mike McClean - one of the World's top comedy mentalists.

The effect titled 'D.N.A clinic' is a comedy card routine that involves the spectator freely selecting a card which they then rub over their body to make sure they add a little of their D.N.A on to it - this will help the magician find their card, as they've been attending a D.N.A evening class. Not only does he find the card, but the rest of the deck is also revealed to be completely blank. No forces, no...

The only ebook of it's kind! A great collection of comedy blackouts for magicians and others, to add variety and spice to shows. A "Blackout" is a quick bit of stage business, usually verbal, that ends in a snappy punch line on which (if possible) the lights go out.

These are all audience tested, guaranteed laughs. Valuable for use between other acts on any kind of show. Adds comedy, bulk and novelty to any programs, provides necessary time for the next act to get ready, etc. For school work or adults.

From the introduction:

The cure for hecklers and other problems. In this ebook you’ll find an incredible amount of funny lines (different from the other books) to use when those inevitable accidents happen. It’s not a question of IF it will happen; it's a question of WHEN it will happen. You face a heckler, you drop something, you make a mistake, you hear a noise off stage, a baby cries, etc., knowing exactly what to say at the appropriate moment will show the audience that you are a real professional. Hundreds of comedy one-liners to cover virtually every accident.

Excerpt from the foreword:

Based on the old 'Fred' card trick, Wolfgang launched his magician fooling version 'Fred Outdone' in 1990, causing a sensation amongst magicians and adding a unique twist in that the whole deck could be shown as a red back deck, except for the Fred card. In 2017 Wolfgang took the trick to new heights, hence the new 'Fred Outdone Squared' title.

It's as simple as any spectator naming any card, e.g. seven of hearts. The entire deck is shown to be red backs with different names on the back of each card. Even another seven can be shown to have a red back and different name. When the seven of...

There are many types of comedy. Visual, verbal, straight, burlesque and pantomimic are but a few, and numerous off-shoots spring from them. Best of all, by far, is the visual gag. This has no language barriers and can be understood by young and old alike.

There was the classic visual gag of the famous musical clown, Grock. He would sit down at a grand piano, only to find the stool was too far away for him to reach the keys. To remedy this, he would rise from the stool, go to the other end of the piano, and laboriously start to push the heavy...

This is probably one of the most ancient of all comedy effects, yet strong enough and entertaining enough to be part of the performance of many leading entertainers. The late mentalist Maurice Fogel made a big hit with this in his show.

The basic effect is that five to six spectators are invited to the front and sit in chairs. In a few moments, they jump up and scream, saying that their chair shocked them. The chairs are examined and found to be ordinary; the moment they sit down, they jump up again, saying they were shocked again. This is repeated as often as the performer wishes. The performer...

No one can really call himself a magician, unless he can pull a rabbit out of a hat. It is the most expected trick in magic today. Even though few magicians do it; you always have kids asking, "Are you going to pull a rabbit out of a hat?"

Potential clients calling about birthday parties, often ask if you can pull a rabbit out of a hat. Some magician's try to pacify the mothers or children using a mirror box production of a rabbit. Good try, but it is not the same. People want to see a rabbit produced from an empty top hat, or even a borrowed hat. If you can do this; you have a big advantage...
