Friday, December 30th, 2011

Right now I’m working on a new piece for the show in 2012.  I’m not saying much about it yet, however it uses apacking crate:

stage illusion!

And it’s got a big surprise ending!  Keep an eye out for this new stage illusion in my One Man Side Show a bit later in 2012!

Summer 2012 Library Show!

Thursday, December 29th, 2011

I know it’s not even January yet, but I just put up the demo video for my summer 2012 library show.  This show is called Dream it…Do it! and the show features all the skills that I either invented or dreamed about doing as a kid and eventually learned from books.

Here’s the video:

If the show looks fun to you forward this video to your local libraries Children’s Librarian or have them give me a call at 206-669-3928.  If you are a librarian and want more specific details of the show visit: http://www.library-magician.com

Have a great new years!

Silhouette Portrait Paper!

Wednesday, December 21st, 2011

Today I got a fresh batch of Silhouette Portrait paper in the mail.

Silhouette Portrait Cutting

I was running low on it, I did a lot of silhouette portrait cutting during the holiday performing season.  If you don’t know what silhouette portrait cutting is watch the video below:

What makes this paper unique is that it’s matte black on one side and white on the other.  That allows me to cut portraits looking at the white side, but them mount them with the black side showing.

Busy Magic Show Season!

Sunday, December 11th, 2011

For most performers December is a busy month and for me it’s no exception!  I’m averaging 3 shows per day over the weekends at company holiday parties… addition to the shows I do on weekdays (school assemblies, etc).  There’s only one more weekend of this busy season then it slows down a bit.

I did just add one last minute public show.  First Night Tacoma just scheduled me to perform at their New Year’s Eve arts festival!

We’re still working on the details like show times, etc.  Once I know the details I’ll post them here.  This will be my first year at First Night Tacoma, I’ve done First  Night Spokane for many years and had a great time, so this should be a fun event!

Great Magic Kit For Kids!

Monday, December 5th, 2011

If you are thinking of getting something magical for your kid this Christmas consider getting them the Amazing Magic Kit!  This is a magic kit that I sell over at www.AmazingMagicKit.com.

There’s a bit of a story behind why I sell this magic kit.  Basically I used to recommend this magic kit to parents when they would ask me what is a good magic kit. Then I started hearing that they were unavailable.  So I called the company that made them and found out there were going out of business and to make a long story short I bought the remaining stock to keep this magic kit available for kids to learn magic tricks from!

What sets this magic kit apart from all the other magic kits on the market is that this one comes with the “Kid’s Teaching Kid’s” DVD.  On this DVD a group of kids perform a magic show then teach all the tricks in the magic show.  This is not only fun for kids to watch, but it also makes learning easier because kids speak in a language that other kids understand!

Here’s a quick sample of the DVD:


The Amazing Magic Kit is normally $24.99,  right now is on sale for 10% off!  To order simply go to www.amazingmagickit.com!
