Bill Wisch - The Slydini Lecture - April 13, 2012
THE Definitive Slydini Experience
celebrating the magic, genius and humor of Tony Slydini. After 35 years,
Slydini's protégé, Bill Wisch, is commemorating his 74 city, Slydini book tour,
presented to thousands of magicians from 1976 through 1979. This is a fully
revised and updated, lecture/tribute that will show you the Magic of Slydini
like you've never seen it before. The lecture will feature unknown Slydini magic
including "The Paper Balls to the Box" (the controversial ending finally
explained and justified!), "The Chicago Loop Mystery" (still completely fools as
it did the Chicago magicians that saw it, and Slydini never told them how it
worked! A great story with this.), "The Flight of the Paper Balls" (the real
secret!), "The Paper Balls, Box and Wand" (a new stage/platform handling of
the classic, Paper Balls to the Box), "One
Hand Unlink" A ring technique like never before. Gives the famous Slydini
Ring Routine a melt-through quality...rings totally examinable and you won't
believe it!), plus: rarely seen Slydini classics ( "The Mongolian Clock",
"Helicopter Card", "Strolling, Slydini Knots Routine", etc.) - fascinating
stories - secrets - lesson audio-clips - inspiring surprises...and much, much
more! The lecture will start at 7:02 PM in the "Filling Station" at the North
Boulevard Church of Christ (our regular meeting place) located at 1112 N.
Rutherford Blvd in Murfreesboro. The costs is $5 for any IBM member (not just
members of Ring 252) and $10 for all non-IBM members.
