Mark Calabrese – Penguin Live Lecture ( Instant Download )

“Mark is somebody who I want to keep secret  from the world but at the same time tell everybody about. I’m blessed to be somebody who he’s willing to share his secrets and ideas with and lucky are those who get the same privilege.  I’m his biggest fan.”  – Daniel Madison

“Mark is an ‘in-your-face’ force of nature, thoroughly unafraid to challenge magic’s conventional wisdom.  His performances constantly remind me that personality is at the heart of entertainment.” –Atlas Brookings

“I always enjoy seeing Mark’s work. He is someone who always pulls out a gem or two when you least expect it.”  – Alan Rorrison

“Every time I see Mark he has something new to blow me away. A very creative thinker with the hands to match.” – Doug McKenzie

Rubik’s Revenge This is a great opener for MC’s and any stand up or cabaret setting! The Magician explains how to solve the rubik’s cube and claims to hold the record for solving the cube behind his back. A hilarious piece with a kicker ending!

Cyrano This is something Mark has been holding close to the chest for a long time and closes his stand up show with this piece! Two spectators (complete strangers) come up with their respective smart phones and begin to text each other back and forth. The magician proceeds to read the mind of one spectator and writes down what each text says. No preshow! No Stooges!

No Dice This is a utility device to secretly force a number to a spectator that can be used for a plethora of effects. Russian Roulette, Bank Night… the possibilities are endless!

Blow A card is chosen and placed into the deck. The magician spreads the deck across the table and blows at the spread and ONE card flutters out and across the table. It’s the spectator’s card! This is extremely visual!

Potato This is a unique mental effect where the magician writes down something on a piece of paper that is crumbled up into a ball. The magician sets a timer on his phone and the ball is passed back and forth amongst the group like a game of hot potato. When the phone alarm buzzes, the spectator with the paper opens up to find that the magician predicted EXACTLY who would have the ball at the end of the timer! The magician never touches the phone after the timer is set!

NLL This is an interesting concept for the close-up table that allows you to do some amazing color changes and switches with cards. Imagine the ability to lap without needing your lap!

Mark will also go over his work on invisible loops, unpublished work on “DVS/THE SEER”, memorized deck ideas and some other great close up ideas.
