When playtime is over and you want to get serious about your magic, this is the book to read. You've know about these type of "theory" books: Showmanship for Magicians- The Trick Brain- Magic by Misdirection all by Fitzkee, Magic and Showmanship by Henning Nelms, Strong Magic by Darwin Ortiz, Mastering the Art of Illusion by Eugene Burger, and recently The Show Doctor by Jeff McBride. I've read and own all those, and this book is still a MUST HAVE. I would even go so far as to say that if you need a place to start, GET THIS BOOK FIRST. It is modern, up to date, easy to read, and best of all FUN. There is something in there for everyone; even pros. The section on audio and sound with microphone technique is a real eye opener.

A great handbook for only the serious-performing magician who wants polish and poise. It may be dry reading for the amateur who merely wishes to perform tricks and not a show.

This is a quality text for any Entertainer. however I may be somewhat biased as I'm familiar with the author personally although I haven't seen him in years. Every word he speaks his truth and accurate. if you're serious about entertainment and making a living in the field this is a book you must read regardless of the type of entertainment you're going to provide. and no I wasn't paid to write this promotion it just so happens the men is top quality in the field.
