New
from Mark Leveridge Magic. Here are the details of another new 'limited time'
item recently added to the MLM Select range of video downloads. Five Times
Lucky - the magician borrows a finger ring from a lady, let’s call her
Sarah, which is given to another spectator to look after. The performer claims
he can make Sarah into a really lucky person so that she can get her ring back
by succeeding in a game of chance. Displaying a pile of half a dozen double
blank cards, the performer writes Lucky Sarah on one of them, after which the
pile is shuffled. The cards are spread in a fan and Sarah can select any one by
touching its back (no force). Her job is try and avoid selecting the card with
Lucky Sarah on it. One at a time she chooses five cards, and amazingly she
manages to avoid the Lucky Sarah card every single time, meaning she wins the
game of chance and gets her ring back. No special sleights, counts or gimmicked
cards required. No reset. Ideal walkabout effect. To watch a dem go to

run of UK shows in 2025 to celebrate their incredible 50th Anniversary.
Renowned for their jaw-dropping performances, a joyous exploration of

tricks, and offer UK audiences a rare opportunity to see the duo perform
live.
Consummate performers, Penn & Teller have continually defied
expectations - and sometimes physics - over the years with their
skewering of traditional magic tricks, crafting clever illusions that
capture audiences' minds and imaginations. With the longest running
headline act in Las Vegas, alongside hit TV series such as Penn &
Teller: Fool Us, Emmy-winning TV specials and hundreds of television

Close-up
at Mac's Cafe, Brighton.
Close-up is a unique performance on headphones, for one spectator at a
time. Inside a seaside café, surrounded by unsuspecting customers, you
are invited to sit at a table and watch a 15-minute performance. In
front of your very eyes, playing cards transform inexplicably and sugar
cubes vanish without a trace. But as you listen to the performer's voice
and the sounds of the café on headphones, the line between reality and
fiction becomes increasingly thin: is this a real café, or a film set
filled with actors? What is really happening now, and what is simulated
and pre-recorded?
Combining expert sleight-of-hand magic with the dreamlike nature of
cinema, Close-up invites you to briefly reimagine everyday life as an
uncanny illusion. Saturday 5th October, 9am-3pm, free at Mac's Cafe,
Brighton BN2 5TD. Book at

Creative Arts.
