Chris Hare
Harebrain Mentalism Lecture
Chris
Hare is the creator of Birthday Detector and the author of Sensational
Memory and has recently released two new effects "Where in the World?"
and "Where Next?"
Chris Hare is able to offer your magic club an entertaining and
informative lecture of approximately 2 hours (plus) in duration.
Although there are one or two items for sale, the lecture is not a
dealer-dem.
The powerful mental effects in the lecture can be performed using
everyday items. These powerful and entertaining effects require
“know-how” as opposed to any sort of physical manipulation skill.
Chris Hare has been a professional entertainer for over twenty years,
during which time he performed his Hypnotic Show for a year in The
Canary Islands, six nights a week. He also performed on a cruise ship
where he memorised the birthdays of over 300 passengers and was able to
recall all of them instantly.
During the lecture he also teaches people how to increase their memory
more than perhaps they could ever possibly imagine.
If you feel that your members would enjoy and benefit from the lecture,
contact Chris Hare on 01784 453192 or email
chrishare@aol.com
The lecture can be performed at short notice if required, subject to
availability.

Mark Leveridge
The Pick and Mix' lecture/dem
Here
is a unique concept in lecturing! Normally when you book a lecturer, it is
he who decides which items you are going to see. This is fine if the
selection of material happens to match the interests of the club members,
but clearly not so good if too many of the items fall outside those areas
of interest.
Now, for the first time, I am offering clubs the chance to see a lecture
which contains effects which THEY choose! From a possible list of 20
varied routines, you can select up to 8 that you would like me to perform
and explain. The list of effects comprises of 20 of my E-Routines, a set
of tricks which has been collected from my many books and lecture notes.
Some of these have been in lectures before, but many haven't. Virtually no
specialist apparatus is required for any of the routines.
When you book the 'Pick and Mix' Lecture/Dem, you simply provide me with
your selection of 8 routines from this list. You can either have the club
committee or a single committee member of the club make the selection on
behalf of the members, or you can print out the list and have the members
make their own choices from which you then opt for the most popular
selections. Either way it puts YOU in control and hopefully will provide
an appropriate and entertaining evening.
The lecture part of the evening will normally last between 60 and 75
minutes. After a short break I will then present a dealer dem for
approximately a further 30 minutes featuring some of my most recent
releases with the opportunity for the members to buy them before the
close.
For further information or to discuss potential dates please contact me on
01392 252000 or email

Paul
Gordon
Impromptu Entertaining (and 'doable') Card Magic lecture
Paul
Gordon is a professional close-up card magician and entertainer
who travels the world with his act, lecture and workshops; including
his Card Capers day of magic. Since 1992, Paul has
lectured in 17 different countries, including five times at The Magic
Circle, 4F’s (FFFF) in New York, Tannen’s Jubilee (New York) and The
Close-up Symposiums in Berlin, Monaco & Copenhagen. Paul is a
creator, author and publisher of twenty-three top-quality books,
DVDs and tricks. His lecture is entertaining as well as jam-packed
with workable card magic, tips, hints, nuances and anecdotes. Paul's
magic has received praise from Steve Beam, Aldo Colombini, J. C
Wagner, Jim Sisti, Max Maven, Eugene Burger, John Guastaferro, Jamy Ian
Swiss, Peter Duffie, David Regal, Harry Lorayne & many more 'names'
in the biz!
Recent lecture review: “He held some fifty people enthralled
as he demonstrated some items from his books. In situations like this,
his command is phenomenal. He makes card tricks entertaining!
He has the audience hanging onto his every word! He has all the
attack of a Ken Brooke or Rovi. Watch his Card Startlers (3 DVD
set) to see how card magic should be performed!” - Walt
Lees.
Paul lectures on magic from his 'live' act and from his books; proof
enough that it is all practical and very magical! He feels that
he can even turn non-cardmen into, well, at least semi-interested
cardmen. If you want to learn strong magic in a fun,
energetic, enthusiastic and informative way, this is the lecture to
see.
Visit Paul’s website to see photos, reviews, trick demos and a free
promotional video of Paul in action; working “live” for laymen.
