“Brad is one of the deepest thinkers in the world of magic.” - Jeff McBride

"(Brad) has very strong opinions, and is not afraid to express them emphatically. If you see him perform, you'll realize that he backs up everything he says...." - Max Maven

Brad Henderson has been a lifetime student of magic and a working magician since his high school days. In addition to being an accomplished performer, he has collaborated on numerous projects with notables such as Michael Ammar, Bob Farmer, Jon Racherbaumer, Alain Nu and Jeff McBride. He has taught magic for over thirty years, authored two widely acclaimed books and has written extensively for Genii, Magic, MUM, and the Linking Ring.
Though specializing in sleight of hand and mind reading, Brad has explored nearly every branch of the mystery arts and has gained a reputation for being one of magic’s most vocal defenders and critics.

The Lecture: Brad is perhaps best known for his analytical approach to creating magic and an explanation of this approach will be the foundation and framework of his lecture.

Using tricks as needed for illustrative purposes, he will discuss valuable ways of approaching magic, share theories and strategies that are essential to the creation of magic that reaches the level of an art form. Brad’s goal will be to provide you with knowledge that should allow you as a magician to progress, improve andultimately realize your own creative visions.

No charge to Oakland Magic Circle members with 2020 dues paid. Annual dues [$20] may be paid at the door. Non Oakland Magic Circle members - $20.
 Non-members who wish to join the Oakland Magic Circle can attend the lecture at no charge if  an OMC membership application is submitted and 2020 dues are paid.

I'm looking forward to the lecture and seeing you there.

For those in the NorCal area who have not seen Brad in action, he's a superb performer and magician. Carpe diem.

You are correct Jeffrey Cowan and your advise was right on the mark. Brad performed excellent magic, and shared thought provoking material and ideas last night in Oakland. Time and money well spent by those who were able to attend. If you get a chance to see Brad's lecture I would highly recommend that you do so.

I would send Jeffrey's comment. Brad is a superb lecturer who really has something to say about magic and its presentation.

[Brad Henderson]

Thanks for all the kind words. I enjoyed the time we spent together and hope everyone left with an idea or two that will help them take their magic further toward their intentions and goals.

Hope to come back and visit again soon
