Why am i preparing so early? because i want win, lol! i want to show people what magic is like. that it is not just for little kids at parties. i want to share my passion (borderline obsession).

Awesome stuff! A little expensive, but you did say that money wasn't a problem.

And you can Google "Illusion Plans" if you want some pretty large scale illusions which you can build yourself. I really don't know of any websites that sell illusion plans.

Best of Luck!

I'm not much into stage magic, close-up and street are where I excel.

Sorry.

Here is a link to the video of a talent show I won 2 weeks ago! I ended up winning $500, a live performance on TV and a performance at a semi-pro baseball game in NY!. This was the second round of 3. I will post the other round when I get it onto youtube. If you need any help, let me know, I have a bunch of ideas floating around... There were about 50 other performers/groups. It was a campus wide talent show and there were abotu 500 people there watching. It was a lot of fun...Enough with the talk, here it is:

A sub trunk is a great idea!

Check out www.PearceIllusions.com in the near future for an awesome one!

Hey, thanks for the response, unfortunately I'm not sure when the site will be up as my webmaster has not gotten back to me in awhile.
I'll post when I know the date.

Until then... check this out: http://pic50.picturetrail.com/VOL457/87 ... 557791.jpg

Candles and doves work well together, look at lance burton's act :wink:

Of course, you'll have to spend many of those 14 months training and rehearsing with the doves.

AND that's only if you're allowed to use doves at school (assuming this is a school talent show)

Ever used a TT? If so, pick up Darwin's DVD on the TT. It's fantastic and has a lot of good tricks for stage.

oh no! not another talent show thread!
