Hello people of the interwebs its Steven back again with yet another blog post. This post is going to be 100% aimed at magicians so apologies in advance to my non magician readers.
As promised yesterday here is day one of learning and performing a trick I have skipped over.
Today's trick is freon a book that was published way back in 1979 by the man who owns my local magic shop, Mr Roy Walton. Today's trick is from a book called "that certain something" and it can be found on page 13. The name of the trick is "smiling mule".
Let me start off by saying this trick uses a move that a lot of magicians panic about getting caught on not once but twice. With that being said the scond time you do it you have so much misdirection because of a joke that's incorporated in the routine.
The trick is a good one and it was very easy to learn. I performed this trick for some people in my college class. When I did the first phase with the joke I got the response of " really? Come on do a real trick". This gave sme so much misdirection to do the stuff that needed done. The trick did get a "oh that's cool" response but I think this would get better reactions from a different audience.
Will this remain in my act? Well yes and no, I would like to play around with it for a few weeks and see how it plays for different audiences and if it gets the reaction I expect then I will keep it in my act.
Well guys that's it from me for today tune in tomorrow for another post.
Thanks
Steven.
