LECTURE | WORKSHOP | MASTERCLASS
Magicians and show theatres all around the world, famous illusionists from Las Vegas, even Cirque du Soleil are among the enthusiastic readers of this book, which was already half sold on the day of publication. The most important magic magazines and the crème de la crème of the international art of illusion praised the book on high (see right).
Both authors bring you back stage to show you the art of quick change. Changing from one costume to another in a split second is not all about the costume itself! The logistics and misdirection in this branch of magic is almost more impressive behind the wings, than actually on stage. Hi-tech costumes UNPLUGGED - how do you get to become really fast at this?!
