Description: Live Magicby W. O. Turner If you've been put off by the high prices dealers charge for magic illusions using rabbit and other livestock, then this is the book for you! Club and stage magic with animals holds a special appeal for any audience. For everyone understands that you cannot compress a rabbit or guinea pig into a space the size of a thimble. An animal has weight, it needs air to breathe, and it must be cared for. So then, just how does the furry or feathered creature materialize (or vanish) at the command of the magician? The secrets are explained in this book, along with simple plans for you (or a friend) to construct dealer-quality, safe and effective illusionettes that feature your cuddly pet as the star. Adding a livestock effect to your show makes it seem “bigger” and more professional. Your animal can also serve as a worthy representative for you and your act. Audiences and reporters alike will enjoy being introduced to your cuddly sidekick. So be sure and give him (or her) a name and have a story or anecdote (real or imagined) ready to add interest to your interviews and backstage visits. Even if you don't plan to build these effects yourself, it's good to know just how livestock magic props work, so that you can make an informed decision if you decide to acquire one or more to your show, to make certain that it fits in with your unique performance, transportation and storage requirements.
