Lesson 82-83 Stage Productions / Magic and Theatre
In Lesson 82, Harlan Tarbell introduces you to four production devices for the stage. They all have one thing in common: they're initially presented empty, and then a large number of different production objects are immediately conjured out of them.
In the "Cardboard Production" scenario, these are melons; in the "Fantasta" scenario, these are cloths, oranges, and anything else that fits into the secret cargo space. The "Organ Pipes" serve as a "tablecloth" – a tablecloth appears along with everything that belongs on it: plates, napkins, cutlery, food, glasses, and drinks, a vase of flowers, and a table lamp. And to conclude this lesson, your charming assistant appears from the "dollhouse illusion."
Everything is explained in detail and in various versions. Technically, the tricks described are simple, but of course, the key is to "sell" them correctly.
And it is precisely this topic that Fred Keating deals with in the following lesson, underpinning the thesis that the founder of modern magic, Jean Eugéne Robert-Houdin, put forward over 150 years ago: A magician is an actor who plays the role of a magician - in short, in Keating's words: magic is theater and vice versa.
