Joshua Jay "Lecture"
Live lectures return to the Magic Shop.
Joshua Jay - How Magicians Think
This Fall, Joshua Jay will be crisscrossing the country in a two-month book tour for the public to promote the release of his anticipated book of essays How Magicians Think. His publisher is sending him to just a dozen cities to do television, radio, shows, and signings in support of this title. Since your group is in one of these cities, Joshua has arranged for a special lecture appearance on his night off in your town.
This is a rare chance to see one of magic's busiest and most exciting performers. Joshua Jay is an internationally recognized talent. He is a former First Place Winner at the World Magic Seminar and was the 2020 Society of American Magicians Magician of the Year. He has won the Creativity Prize at FISM, and fooled Penn & Teller on Fool Us. Joshua has appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and The Late Show with James Corden. He has created two of the best-selling tricks in magic over the last decade: "Balance" and "Inferno," and he co-owns Vanishing Inc. Magic, one of the largest and most prolific companies in magic.
Joshua Jay is also known as one of our industry's leading lecturers. He is an exceptional teacher, and in his two-hour lecture he mixes close-up and parlor, easy and difficult, and card and non-card magic. In his new lecture lineup, you will see him perform the following:
The Lecture Run Down
- The Wager: a brand new, unpublished effect using four coins and a hundred-dollar bill. Visual, smart, and extremely deceptive.
- Reverse Logic: The ultimate parlor opener. A spectator shuffled deck goes back into new deck order, a watch appears back on your wrist, and you travel back in time.
- Any Card at Any Page Number: One of Josh's signature effects...you've never seen this classic of magic with an ending quite like this.
- The Card Dazzler: This is a color-changing deck where the cards change in the spectator's hands...and then every card in the pack turns clear.
- Cornered Complete: Make a borrowed bill appear in a spectator's wallet. You read that right. A spectator's wallet.
- Plus, many more routines from Josh's original repertoire and product line.
