Every season we introduce new routines, stunts, and/or illusions to the show. With the kids getting older and more talented their ideas and skills expand and begin to flow into the show. Likewise, we have a high rebook rate so we try to bring new things, while keeping the favorites, to our clients...keeping things fresh. Here are some New things for the 2009 season ready to go:
1. Princess Cynthia will add more quick change costume changes. We have had in our show's rotation two quick changes over since our Japan shows in the early 90s. In fact, we have back in the rotation one of those at the beginning of the show since earlier this season. However, we wanted more so we have developed a full routine dedicated to the costume change with several changes happening in the blink of an eye.
2. Strong Man. Last year I developed on version that had mixed success so I went back to the drawing board and now have two versions. Victor Kent Jr is our strong man...stronger than any man in the audience.
3. Enchanted Garden. Anyone who knows me knows that I have been greatly influenced by Harry Blackstone Jr and indirectly by his dad. As a kid I saw him life twice. One memory I had was the enchanted garden. he would fill the stage with flowers. It was beautiful. I have contracted with a builder who makes the flowers and we have started the slow development of the our own Enchanted Garden. It won't be until next season that the full routine will be in place but a sample of it will be in our three show rotation this summer.
4. Appearing Boy. We will do this once per venue and it will blow you away.
This weekend has been a heavy rehearsal weekend and I have been plaqued with a cold. In spite of that we have made a few hundred wands for the give-aways and sales. We have completed the building of the abovemention props and started practice. Two weeks or so until take off on the 2 month tour.
