What is the most bizarre act you have seen? For me it had to be the naked magician. To this day I don't know who it was, I think that they were Scandinavian. I saw the act at the Edinburgh Festival.
The guy fortunately wasn't actually naked he had flesh coloured trunks on. The act was almost exclusively manipulation. It was done in very low lighting with back light - almost silloutte like. One of the worst parts about it was that every time he wanted to take a new load they shone really bright stage lights into the audiences eyes practically blinding everyone. By the time your eyes recovered the next flash came (lighting, no pun intended). This was definitely one of the most bizarre (and worst) acts that I have seen. |

Oh, the opportunities for double entendres regarding a naked manipulator! Like shooting fish in a barrel...

Well, nothing up the sleeve...
I wonder what he did with his thumbtip? |

If you are worried about the thumbtip you really have to feel bad for the poor doves.

I've seen lots of odd variety acts, but not too much along the lines of your naked magician. What's the guy's name - I really should know it!- who has the rabbit trained to go to the microphone and "talk" to open his act? That's pretty weird. And truly wonderful. |

How big was his magic wand?

Guys, if I recall correctly, he passed away. No joke, he caught a cold, it went to pneumonia and he died. A Google news search should turn up the article.
I am not joking, for a change, on this one. Lee Darrow, C.H.
