CONTENTS INCLUDE:
RE:MONITION
The performer openly displays two decks of cards - one red backed and one blue backed. A spectator from the audience is randomly selected and invited to join the performer. They are asked to merely think of a playing card and to confirm that it is a decision which they have made at that moment and that they have never discussed the selection of the card with the magician or anyone else beforehand.
The performer explains that they are going to attempt to cause that card - while it is still just a thought in the spectator's mind - to jump invisibly from the blue deck into the red deck. After a magical gesture the spectator is asked to count through the blue deck and to stop when they see their thought of card. They count through all the cards - there are only 51 - and confirm that they have not seen the card which they are thinking of. It has vanished from the blue deck!
The performer removes the red deck from its box and at this point for the first time the spectator names their card. The performer spreads through the deck face up to find the red backed named card. They continue to spread through the remaining cards to reveal a single face down blue backed card. This is removed and turned face up to reveal that it is the spectator's thought of card!
RING ON NOTEPAD
This is based upon the effect which Anthony created for Geoffrey Durham which he performed on Channel Four's Countdown.
The performer explains that they are attempting a new trick and so will need to refer to their notebook to remember what they're doing! Despite this they manage to successfully make a spectator's finger ring vanish. Amazingly it re-appears linked onto the notepad's spiral binding which needs to be snipped open with wire cutters so that the spectator can be reunited with their ring.
BIG SURVIVOR 2
This effect was created by Anthony for Stephen Mulhern to perform on SM:TV.
Members of the audience are invited onto the stage and the performer explains that they are going to participate in a magical version of a reality television show with the audience getting to decide on the nominations and evictions! Each of the on stage contestants are given large name badges and appropriate pieces of attire and props in keeping with well-known reality 'stars'. Each of their names are placed into a bag and mixed. Members of the audiences then draw out nominations two at a time for other audience members to decide who is evicted. Finally when only two contestants remain the entire audience votes on who should win. Amazingly, despite such an apparently free choice, the performer reveals that he had correctly predicted the winner - twice.
RECAFFINATED COFFEE
This effect was created by Anthony with Pete McCahon and Richard Pinner and was performed by Pete in series one of Monkey Magic.
The performer makes a cup of coffee - pouring hot coffee, milk and a lump of sugar into a cup. The performer drinks the contents and then proceeds to 'unmake' the coffee in their empty mouth - spitting out separately - milk, clear water, a sugar lump and coffee granules!
OUT OF THIS HOUSE
This is Anthony's handling of Paul Curry's 'Out of this World' which can be performed with a shuffled regular deck, which you deal face down into 'Reds' and 'Blacks' as requested by the spectator - and they are 100% correct - without having to stop-and-swap halfway through!
THE AMAZING KARATE PENCIL OF DEATH
This is Anthony's acclaimed handling for pencil through coin in which the spectator is actually able to remove their marked coin from the pencil themselves!
