It's been requested of me so, so many times...can you make a rabbit appear out of your hat?
So, I think I should! My character wears a large top hat...does anyone know where to get a gimmick to make a rabbit appear? I don't want it given away, so PM me if you need to. I don't have time in my schedule to make one... Thanks! Chris |

Chris do you want to appear a real live rabbit from your top hat? If so I have a method that can work for you. or at least one I used to do and know several others have done.

Hi Chris.
I also do the rabbit from hat--still do. If Kyle's method does not fit your style, then contact me. Maybe Kayle's method and mine are the same. We'll see. Richard Lyn |

I believe the Bert Easley book has a method. I'm also pretty sure that Abbott's still sells their Rabbit-from-the-Hat.

I pull my run rabbit run bunny from my top hat, and when it disappears from the house I make it reappear back in the hat.
Where can I find the pull the TOP HAT out of the rabbit trick? (for adults of course) Al Angello

There is a pretty simple way to do this w/o any "gimmick" per say. It is not a body load, and can be done with any deep hat, and the hat can be handled before and after the routine. Also, the first "ECENTRRIX" (I think) video has a great way to have the illusion that your hat is a lot deeper than it appears (w/o a gimmick).

I really appreciate the input everyone, lots of great ideas (and for an adult show I'll have to take Al up and try something new..)
I'm going to contact Abbott's, as I need a gimmick that's premade...my schedule...let me just put it this way, I have absolutely no time to figure this out, I need to just get the gimmick and go.. Chris |

Tarbell v3 has a big section on dove and rabbit productions, no body loads; vol 5 covers body loads
Harry Baron's book Close-up Magic for Beginners has a method using a "doulble hook and loop". I too would be interested in knowing where to get one of these. Chris keep us informed about what you find out. John

Abbott's has a "live production bag" or some such title... not on the site, you have to ask for it. There are a few diff. sizes...$30 was what I was charged for a medium size? (I told him the size of my rabbit, I keep thinking he said it was the medium...)
$30 seems a good price to me, I don't have time to make things like this. I should have the package by Monday..I"ll work with it and let you guys know. Chris |

Chris,
Abbott's also used to make a Rabbit Hat (gimmicked Top hat). Don't forget about Eric Sharpe's books. Regan

One of Alan Shaxon's videotapes has a very good table load that can be done surrounded.
