| MAGIC AND SHOWMANSHIP | |
 | Code: B004 Price: 19.95  |
| Drama and conjuring are both arts of illusion. The magician who practices both is the one the audience will never forget. Look at David Copperfield! Like theatrical productions, conjuring is an art of illusion. A magician skilled in the craft is able to convince an audience that he or she can perform genuine magic. Without having mastered the art of presentation or "showmanship," however, even the most competent magician can fall short in performance. In this valuable book, Henning Helms analyzes every phase of conjuring, from sleights, devices, incorporating "patter," and the effective use of assistants. Of particular interest is a chapter on body language, movement, and poise. Includes some 60 original routines, from simple card tricks to such major illusions as having the performer suddenly appear center stage!!! Give your performance the sharpness of the theatre!! 322 pages with 200 illustrations. No. B004 | |
