Friend wants to learn magic. He fancies learning stuff he can do with things in his pockets. (wahay).
Good intention.
I do cards though.
Any recommendations for entry level learning in the impromptu field? DVD or book.
Thanks in advance.

If you are near NYC, meet Jerry Deutsch on a Saturday at the pizza place. Have a look at the "perverse magic" thread here, and some of his contributions to Apocalypse magazine. The guy studied with slydini and knows how to bring magic to people.Originally posted by mrgoat:

This friend is more at the 'learn a couple of tricks to do in the pub' stage rather than the 'Faking It' for channel 4 stage!Originally posted by Pete Biro:
Hire Pat Page.
Also, I doubt he has the budget for Pat!

Dan Harlan's "Ultimate Impromptu" vids are a great resource for top notch / instant gratification impromptu stuff.
