Hot Off The Presses
Well, maybe not quite as hot as it seems. Many people credit David Blaine for making
street-magic as popular as it is today. It's true that the little rascal brought
nationwide attention to this style of magic, through his television specials, but
street-magic has been around for centuries. "You don't say." Uh… yup, I did.
Close-Up Gone Wild
Magicians all over the world have been performing close-up magic in the streets for
hundreds - make that thousands - of years. The primary difference between street-magic
and other styles is that the audience is random and usually unaware that entertainment
is being offered. The magical rascal basically catches the "audience" off-guard.
Can You Say Strolling
Street-magic can take two forms - fixed or strolling. Fixed refers to a performance
where the magician remains in one location and works from a table or stand - as people
approach his location. Strolling refers to brief effects the magician performs while
strolling among guests or random pedestrians - like that Blaine fella.
Absolutely Perfect
If you need entertainment in the wide open spaces, street-magic may be right up your
alley. (Alley… get it? Ok… that was bad.) Street-magic is ideal for county or state
fairs, street celebrations, town festivals, company picnics ~ or any outdoor event
where you just can't be sure where your audience will wander.
