A Short Time Off- new stuff

After the Children's festival last week we have taken a well deserved nearly two-week stint off. But, let's face it, there really is no such a thing as time off. I say that because while on the road office things, household things, school things,etc pile-up. So we play catch up with all that.


There is also the touching up of paint, fixing the broken, washing and cleaning the dusty and dirty, and building the new for the show. Those who watch our show and show up at least 15 minutes prior to the show know we use a cool song at the 15 minute mark prior to the show. It's called, "Bump in the Night" from the Scoobie Doo Movie. I always wanted to do a trick to that music. As a kid I saw Doug Henning perform the a trick that is called "Bump in the Night" where he makes several "ghosts" appear and at the end one of the ghosts turns out to be Doug, who you just saw a second earlier.....it's easier to explain if you see it. And you will be able to see it next month. I have already began construction on the Illusion (though the method and props are different from Doug's it's the same concept).

We have also taken the research from our strong man routine performed by Victor (we test performed it at the Cantaloupe Festival) and are moving to stage two taking the lesson from the tests as well as redesigning the props.


Princess Amelia will introduce a very cute but very perplexing mind reading puzzle to her repertoire. She will read the audience member's mind with the help of a teddy bear. Don't let the concept trick you into thinking this is going to only fool kids....I promise you adults will be just as puzzled.


People waiting for new wand tricks on the wand tricks page won't have to wait much longer I plan on having them up this week.
