Found in Trifecta are both close-up and stage effects that are among the author’s favorites over a 30 year performing career. You will learn:
Dick’s award-winning close-up effect “Clued In” based on the popular board game of Clue. This effect requires the gathering of a few props, but a laminated “mansion card” is included with this book to help the reader get started towards performing this terrific routine.
The secrets behind “Top 40 Mentalism” which is Dick’s closer for his stage mentalism show. This is Dick’s signature piece.
A surefire way to personalize magic for your clients. “Customized Serendipity” is Dick’s favorite method and is explained in detail with 20 photos.
How to set up a marketing system to ensure a steady stream of bookings within six months using a “suspense file.”
Presentations (original patter) for three classic magic effects.
And much more!
