Close-Up Magic is Where It's At

There is a woodcut of a Medieval traveling magician doing the Cups and Balls. Indeed, the effect goes back to ancient Egypt, and maybe beyond. Getting up close has always been at the heart of magic. You do not need a piano player's fingers nor a swordsman's speed. Argentinean magician René Lavand became famous doing it without even a right arm!

Close-up magic can be an ideal ice-breaker at get-togethers of all sorts. Indeed it is the walk-around magician's stock in trade at cocktail parties, conventions and corporate hospitality suite receptions. Restaurant magicians do it going from table to table.

Impromptu magic is usually close-up, as well. It is flexible. And, when an apparent miracle is pulled off right under someone's nose, it is extremely impressive.

So, always keep an effect or two in one of your pockets. ...And a business card in another.
