Magical Voyages - Eugene Burger 3setsPart 1: A Voyage to the Real World - Working behind a bar for an audience of real people, Eugene Burger makes it clear why he is one of the world's most celebrated close-up artists. Then, he's joined by David Parr to analyze these time-tested routines from Eugene's performing repertoire. You'll be delighted at the clever method behind David Solomon's Cutting Ten, be impressed with how much excitement Eugene derives from a Simple Spelling card trick and be drawn in by his presentation for Alan Ackerman's Gemini Money. Eugene and David reveal two astonishing new methods for a U.F. Grant classic in the 21st Century Bill Transposition. Eugene offers insights into spectator management, audience involvement, and the concepts that transform magic into something meaningful.

Part 2: A Voyage to the Unreal World - On this tape Eugene is joined by Jeff McBride to explore close-up magic that is offbeat, whimsical and decidedly strange. This journey begins with Flash Spirit Message, as efficient a link to the ghostly realm as you could ever request. In Double Reverse, a classic Walter Gibson effect is raised from a card trick into an evocative piece of intimate Spirit Theater (including Eugene's personal handling on Glorpy). Eugene's version of Al Baker's Card in the Hat leads into a detailed discussion of advanced thread technique. Jeff then shows what happens when Mark Twain meets Robert Neale, as he explains The Five Gifts of Life. Eugene teaches Phil Goldstein's The Wagers of Sin. Finally, there's a thorough analysis of Matt Schulien's Corner in the Glass. Eugene also offers special insights into presentational framing, rehearsal techniques and the concepts that transform magic into something significant.

Part 3: A Voyage to the Inner World - If you've ever dreamed of a private session with Eugene Burger, now is your chance. Sinology, a simple coin routine, becomes a parable about self-discovery. In his version of Lin Searles' Cannibals, Eugene combines sly humor with impressive technical chops that will fool you, until he explains it. In New Match Stickler, a Milbourne Christopher item usually thrown away as a bar stunt becomes a powerful mystery. More ominous themes are considered in Robert Neale's daring Last Dream. To conclude this encounter, Eugene discusses the thinking that led to the creation of two of his most requested routines: The Inquisition, his wickedly dark take on Roy Walton's Card Warp, andShakespearean Thread, an evocative new presentation for the Hindu Thread. Eugene also offers special insights into artistic expression, performance philosophy, and the theories that transform magic into something deeply personal. Composed and Directed by Max Maven
