If you know routines with, persuasion, telepathy, intuition, memory, and more Chuck Hickok does too.
So what makes this book special and how will you benefit ?
He tells you what order to put
thoose routines in to provide the audience with a believable and building crecendo that will have
the audiences getting more and more interested in the act as each minute passes.
The book gets
straight to the point on everything he has learned.
The scripts he provides for use are
bascally timeless and just some fine tuning to match your words.
But his sold belief that each
routine should really only demonstrate one phenomenon puts your show on a good path.
His show
template in the book is rather a series of routines he used wuth scripts. But he achieves this dream
act of YES, each trick builds and gets more impossible and therefore you take the audience along.
There is an amazing bonus routine where you can teach the audience to say the alphabet backwards
and therefore leave them with something in their heads they learned. More of a smile thing.
I
read this book three times in one week, and have a new respect for really thinking about how
important it is to start simple when doing a full show.
And how fragile that relationship is to
an audience if you tell them something that is true nonsense, you may not be able to recover.
