Bandit is perfect for close-up, parlor or even stand up. In stand up, you can channel your innerDoc Eason during the routine by shouting "who's got the box?" and they'll shake it over their headshouting, "I do, I do".
Bandit isn't just a vanish, you can also use it as switch box for routines like torn and restored, billnumber revelation, a killer oil and water with ripped up cards. It's a marketing cliche, but it really isonly limited by your imagination.
Oh, and if you struggle with a Mercury fold, the spectator folds the card! It's perfect every time!
As for reveals, you can use any of the amazing props you may already have to make a card/billmagically appear, but you don't have to! Noel and Roddy will teach you a couple of great routinesthat need nothing more than cards or a borrowed phone. You also have alternatives to the bagand it's all taught. You can do it with a clear bag, no bag or a paperclipped card/bill.
It's not hard and there's no sleight of hand; you'll just need to play with the gimmicks for a fewhours before it becomes second nature. You just need 5 mins to customize the gimmick to youand then it's playtime.
The method will delight you so much that the hardest part is not having a huge grin on your faceas you perform Bandit. If you know somebody who saw it dimmed at Blackpool or Magic Live,they were fooled.
Every top pro at Magic Live and Blackpool brought over their buddies, because they wanted tosee the look on their faces when they got kicked in the $&@£ by the method.
Need another reason? I'll only whisper it as I don't want everybody to know: it's also a killer, killerpeak. Shhh, keep it down.
