Joshua Jay is truly a phenomenon in magic – host of the Talk About Tricks section of MAGIC Magazine for the last seven years, author of two best-selling trade books (the first published in five languages), star of a series of instructional magic DVDs, Champion at the World Magic Seminar in 1998, TV appearances in no less than eight countries – the list goes on and on…
But for many in the magic community, Joshua Jay’s most interesting performance venue is his LECTURE! Over the past three years this New York based (and Ohio raised) worker has toured FIFTY-FOUR countries, allowing him to hone his lecture into one of the most entertaining and informative programs of its kind. In November 2007 Joshua performed this lecture in Lima, Peru. It subsequently won Joshua “International Magician of the Year” from the Association of Latin American Magicians. On this video Joshua brings this polished event to the UK for the first time.
At the heart of this two-hour extravaganza is – METHOD. Joshua Jay dissects and examines the numerous methodological approaches you can apply to your magic. And, of course, each approach is demonstrated with a different, original routine. This is a collection of powerful, workable magic, but more importantly, an examination of the thought process of their construction.
Whether your interests run to cards, coins, close-up, parlour, stage, mentalism or walkaround – Joshua Jay’s lecture will simply MAKE YOUR MAGIC BETTER! Methods In Magic also features an in-depth interview with Joshua Jay, taking in advise on practicing, crazy celebrity encounters, advise for aspiring magicians and some hair raising tales from life on the road.
With Methods in Magic you’ll learn powerful, road tested magic. More importantly, you’ll learn the secrets to truly develop your own material.
