What will they teach?

SCOTT:

Shell Shocked- This is Scotts killer Add a Number Routine that takes us to the beach, where the spectators accurately guess how many grains of sand Scott has in a bottle. But then, the magic and mentalism wave crashes down slamming the audience with two more magical and startling
revelations.

Shawshank Card Sword- Tired of elastic breaking on every Card Sword he has used, Scott invented a simple and practical version using an ordinary sword and a whole lot of clever thinking. This three phase routine is outrageously funny, yet still delvers that powerful ‘Wow Moment” of the Card Sword without fear of breaking elastic. A perfect additional ending to Scott’s Penguin Download routine
called Backstabber.

The Brass Ring- The Jardine Ellis Ring is one of the most powerful yet underused props in close up magic. Scott teaches his four phase routine that builds to an amazing climax that happens right in the spectators own hand. Scott also tips his clever Optical Ring and String move. You will definitely give this routine the “thumbs up!”

Street Style Cups and Balls- Building on Scotts Chop Cup Routine and inspired by Gazzo, Williamson and Sheets, Scott discusses his progressive cups and balls routine he performs everywhere from the Renaissance Festivals to the Corporate stage. This routine works anywhere and is full of gags, jokes and bits of business.

Snapped Shut- This is Scott’s routine using the famous Daring Spring Trap. A dramatic yet hilarious card location that is painfully funny, with a great blow off at the end of the routine inspired by the great Steve Martin

Plus Performances of
The Though Toon Pad and The Poe Man’s Linking Rings

DAN:
Hold Your Clapper- An inexpensive way to make your own “Self-Silencing Bell.” Useful for opening announcement to “Turn off cellphones or anything that rings,” this bell stops ringing at your command. Perfect for holiday shows!
The Wild, Wonder Girl- A silly smash-up of circus sideshow and psychic sensation. A feral human female, raised by rabid squirrels, has been trained to identify animal crackers by sound and smell. A triumph of behavioral science!
Fool Me Once- The same method used to fool Penn & Teller allows any card named to reverse itself in the deck. Plus, the card’s back changes color and has a message written on it. Of course, the full method for fooling P&T is revealed for the first time!
ACAANAAT Explained-  Exclusive! The full explanation of Harlan’s Any Card at Any Number at Any Time (featured in his second Penguin Live lecture) is finally pried out of his mind since he’s run out of other things to talk about!
