This weeks TMC TV is a follow on to a video created by Stuart Scott on episode 9 (from 18th May 2020).
Following lots of great feedback, we have asked Stuart back to shows us more of the virtual tour that was originally put together by Bob Read.
Mike Powers has been creating and performing magic for over 30 years. Mike is the author of four books on sleight of hand magic – Powerful Magic (1983), Top Secret Stuff (1990), Power Plays (2006) and Tesseract (2019). Power Plays was voted book of the year on the Magic Café and was runner up on Magic Industry Awards. His creations have appeared in all the major magazines as well as in Paul Harris’ “A Close Up Kinda Guy.”
Mike has performed for many years as a close-up magician with much experience in restaurant work. He has also been an invited performer at the famous Magic Castle in Hollywood and has lectured and worked at magic conventions and clubs all over the U.S., Canada and around the world. Mike currently writes the “Card Corner” column The Linking Ring. In 2019 Mike will be the guest of honor at the prestigious Fechter’s Finger Flicking Frolic.
Mike’s “Tesseract” lecture involves mostly close-up magic with cards, coins, rubber bands, rings and other ordinary objects, although a couple of items are suitable for platform and stage. Most of the material is accessible to the average magician but there might be a “move monkey” item or two as well.
