At the Table Live 2 Lecture Joshua Jay
You've seen him on The Today Show, Good Morning America, and even on Penn & Teller's Fool Us. That's right, Joshua Jay is back from a whirlwind of televised appearances for his second At The Table Lecture.
The first time he was here, Josh teased us with a routine that fooled
Penn and Teller -- and now he finally reveals the method! As an author
of thirteen books on magic, Josh has designed this lecture to not only
teach seven amazing tricks in that unique style that only Joshua Jay can
deliver, but also serves an extensive lesson on method and
practicality. Whether you are a beginner or seasoned professional, there
will be something for you with Joshua Jay At The Table. Here's what Josh will be teaching:
Signs:
A freely-chosen and unseen card is hidden by the spectator. Using three
cards in the deck, Josh is somehow able to divine the card's color,
value, and suit.
Double Thought: Both the magician and
spectator think of a card, and using only the power of intuition, they
are both able to pull out the other's selection from a deck of cards.
Weighing Across:
If you cross the "Weight Guess" carnival game with the "Cards Across"
plot and mix in a pinch of awesomeness, this is the clever routine you'd
get. In this multi-phase effect, not only is Josh able to correctly
guess how many cards a spectator is sitting on by height, or how many
cards are placed in a bag by weight, but he is also able to magically
move cards from the pile under the spectator's butt into the pile in the
second spectator's bag!
Out of Sight: This is the trick
that fooled Penn and Teller, and Josh finally reveals his method to this
amazing trick. Completely blindfolded, Josh is able to find a freely
thought of card in a deck. But more impressively, the rest of the entire
deck turns out to be completely blank!
In the Hands Christ:
Josh loses four aces in the deck, then proceeds to miraculously find
each ace in a different manner. Based on "Henry Christ Aces," Joshua Jay
adds a number of touches to make the revelations more powerful and the
overall effect more practical.
Face Change: A fantastic
color change that happens in front of the magician's face that is both
incredibly easy to perform and beautiful to observe.
Triad Coins: An impressive three coin vanish using Joshua Jay's Triad Coins.
For anyone who has ever wanted to learn an easy but powerful coin routine, this trick is for you.
