What will he teach?

This Act is a formal close-up show – it would play at a a private party, restaurant, or nightclub where people are seated theater style with the close-up table up front.

Opening Surprise – An impressive way to grab their attention.

Something from Nothing – Finally on video, Larry transforms a blank piece of paper to a $10 bill . . . and then gives the audience a magical surprise.

Not Cutting the Aces – Learn how to “dead cut” to a four of a kind selected by a participant. (Based on a final routine by Eugene Burger.)

Imagination Card Across – One merely thought-of card travels from one packet to another. A super-clean classic with no palming.

Skin in the Game – a mindreading game with ESP cards, where real poker chips are at stake!

Walking the High Wire – Larry’s fun, extra-deceptive version of a Juan Tamariz routine (taught with Juan’s blessings).
