I love the 20th century silks, it's on my list of effects I would like to do in a show. I've done the cut and restored rope for friends and it really does get a strong reaction.
20th-century silks is a great one. Good choice.
I used most of these for years. Great stuff.
Sure fire hits
Yep. I routinely Perform at Farmers Markets and Festivals in My Area. Despite using all the Latest/Greatest from Penguin, Murphys, et al, I still get TONS of Mileage doing Cut and Restored Rope and Professors Nightmare. I also find that Card Routines like 4 Ace Effects and Ambitious Card appeal equally to Kids and Adults.
The classics are classic for a reason - audiences love them. Ambitious Card is so visual. Its one of the great perfect card effects
I went to the scarborough fair the other week. I don't know what possessed me to, but I dressed as a jester and performed classics. It was my excuse to drop my own character, and perform sponge balls, vanishing silks...and on a whim, I even performed the linking rings for the first time. Genuinely, there was inherent wonder in people's eyes, and the magnetic draw of attention. I now understand more about why this effect is a classic.
Great story. I love it.
The classics rule..nothing like the surprise and look of wonder in the spongeball in there hand trick..
Absolutely
I do a torn and restored paper but I do it with a valentine I call it BROKEN HARTED and the patter is about my not getting a date
I also do Chinese sticks and Professors Nightmare so I do know what your saying
But what of THE ARROW SIGN ROUTINE I think that is worth a look as well
I love the Arrow Sign routine. I did it for about a year and audiences seem to enjoy it
Hey, David. How's it doing? Mind if you do a video on the difference between stage, closeup and parlor magic?
I did, and thanks for asking. You can find it here: ruclips.net/video/CB3k0kyu6bk/видео.htmlsi=c7-bWDgeQtj8OsEd
@@DavidDellman Ah yes. I must have forgotten. In that case, mind if you do a video on Penn Jillette and his partner, Teller?
@@LuisRivera-vf9pk I will give that some thought, Luis. Thanks
Wonderful list of the classics. The bill to lemon was a favorite l used to do. Along with several of the rope tricks. The egg bag is also something Mark Wilson had done as well and later putvit back out on the market. I believe this is one of the last he did before he passed. 🙏😊👍✨️🪄
In his later years, he did rely on the egg bag. I saw him perform it in a theatre in PA.
So card tricks are not parlor magic?
I did a separate video on classic card effects. You might want to check it out
