I'm Karissa Hendricks and this is my act. I'm here to introduce you to a couple of my characters
We're gonna show you some of the same material performed totally differently by two different characters
So that they appeal to totally different markets different age ranges if we performed in different environments
I've won many awards for this act including at the Melbourne Magic Festival The Comedy Award and
Canadian rising star at the atoms linked to wood also
I got nominated a stage magician of the year magic castle with the same material
Not only are you gonna learn some fantastic routines that you can do for both adult?
audiences and little tweaks to make them work for kids shows now all the magic in this show is
Really great for adults, too
Which means you don't have to worry about all the rhythms in the back of the room trying to entertain each other
The parents are fooled by
Absolutely everything and so they actually watch to enjoy it
You're also gonna learn how to build the props necessary to make it how to pack store and travel with them and all the theory
Behind what makes them unique and special we're gonna start with my signature opener the minimalist think a drink where two spectators from the audience
Pick any drink and then from line and previously completely empty cocktail shaker
I can pour each of their selected cocktails as well as one for myself
three completely different
Visually stunning transformation to come out of one great example
This routine is deliberately designed to be very easy to perform so that you could focus on the comedy
Everything that you need for this I'm gonna actually teach you how to build so that you have the opportunity to make it your own
You don't learn any complicated sleight
All you have to do is focus on the premise
Then I'm going to teach you how to do the performance I did on foolís
Which is the any book production?
The gimmick behind the book production is made with everyday materials. And as soon as you know how to build it. You can build 15
This is going to be an extremely valuable piece of information
For you the remark that I'm going to teach you behind this will allow you to make tons of different production items very easily
In the gym routine for spectators whom seem to think that they're very good liars are brought up on stage
it's a playful routine where one of them will secretly step forward and steal an
invisible pot of jam from midair and then suddenly the magician will
Impossibly know which one has stolen the invisible Jam the best part of this routine is that it involves? No props whatsoever
It was inspired by the idea of what are you gonna do if you ever lose your weapon
Once you have something with Canio tracks, you have eight minutes solid material
Reconciliation confabulation. Well, you see darling. I spot some in the audience from my past
They tell me who they are and why we have not spoken five long years
We could reconcile and neither of us really like that man anyway, and it was a hundred years ago together
We mention asymmetry that were meant to be friends again
and the nicest thing about this is a
Combination of a couple of different methods which makes it more deceptive for the audience and even the person up on stage
My running spring routine is a three-phase walk-around routine that allows you to create an intimate relationship with your spectators
Closer magic should be about intimacy
Yeah, now this time you are controlling all of the other this is only
variations on handling to make it easier for you to perform more deceptive and
Beautiful as I said, it also contains a brand new closer for this routine
That's not only very visual extremely deceptive but also absolutely sell work. Then we're gonna do some fun bubble stuff. I
Think the bubbles are one of the most fantastical things that people are not doing it. It should be in your show
It's a fantastic way to separate your acts from other magicians in your area
If it's not in your kids show then you leave the money on the table all the time. Everybody's a pop ready
We're gonna put a whole human child inside a giant bubble
Then we're gonna go into the top cupper team
Which is the opportunity for the audience to get a handle on Who I am as a performer in this routine
We're going to show you how to start an antagonistic relationship
with a spectator that doesn't ever cross over into something that's offensive or uncomfortable and now
He's already Cameron darling this is where you got confused before
This is really about audience management and taking a simple trick and getting the most amount of juice out of this
This is stack of mutant toys and put in your suitcase and
Travel and know that you've got an act that's gonna basically suit any audience you work with all over the world
This is genuinely the act that I have been building and doing and working on and collecting data about
For two and a half years, and I'm here to give it to you
I'm Carissa Hendricks and ease are my axe
