Got this package about 6 months ago....Here I goEFFECT:
A gentleman is chosen out of the audience to participate in a card trick. A jumbo deck of cards is introduced and a card is chosen. The deck is wrapped up in a "Magic Silk Handkerchief" (toilet paper) and the magician prepares to toss a huge (and we mean huge) menacing blade at the spectator from twenty feet. Unwilling to cooperate, the roles are reversed, and the blade is now aimed at the performer (also unwilling to cooperate). After a few more funny twists and gags, the card is indeed found using the huge blade!
This gem of a comedy magic routine has been a keystone of Ted Amberg's stand-up act for years and is a definite reputation builder.
Includes Everything Required - Jumbo Gimmicked Deck, Huge Blade and Instructions
Price: S$60
Pros:
a) A good comedy routine ideal for both stage or parlour (Adult shows).
b) Audience participation required.
c) Packs flat but plays big kind of trick.
d) A very detail Instructions.
e) The Gimmick Jumbo Deck (used by DC) and the big knife are really value for money.
Cons:
a) The ending is weak. I am still trying to improve the ending.
b) Using really knife can be rather dangerous. If you are not clear in your instructions you may turn a comedy routine into something bloody.
c) Not for beginners.
Verdict:
I like this very much. I am trying to improve the ending to make the whole routine better. If you have any ideas, please let me know.
I will give it a 3 out of 5.
