Jay Scott Berry - The Pure Magic Lecture

Jay Scott Berry is a modern day Merlin and Renaissance man. As a creator, performer and teacher, Jay Scott Berry is recognized as one of the Masters of the Art. His impeccable style of magic has made him a regular performer at the some of the world's finest hotels and for some of the top global corporations. His lectures and master classes have received rave reviews and standing ovations worldwide.

"In my entire career, I have never seen anything as convincing. It was real magic, delivered with precision timing and consummate skill."
--Mark Wilson

"The most Magical Act I've ever seen!"
--Dean Dill

He challenges pre-conceived notions of what is actually possible and inspires one to reach for a higher level of performance. But most of all, what sets him apart is that the illusions he creates actually look like real magic! As a creative force, his unique and diverse ideas have helped shape the current State-of-the-Art.

Jay will perform and teach many original effects, including:

The Diamond Silk Fountain - From empty hands, a 24" silk appears that instantly becomes a multi-colored silk fountain. From this, a full, solid wine bottle appears and finally, a crystal wine glass!

Retrograde - A satin ribbon is cut into 8 pieces and, in an instant, is restored. This starts clean and ends clean - pure magic!

The Immaculate Transformation - An ordinary sponge ball visually changes into a matching colored silk. One of the most amazing visual transformations you will ever see.

The Vortex Streamer Production - Both hands are shown empty. A hole in space is created with the cupped hand, and a 68" rainbow streamer is produced!

Chameleon Knots - Two Diamond Silks are tied together and a knot is tied in each one. With a wave of the hand, the colored knots change places. Another pass and they change back. The silks are untied and shown again. An absolute stunner!

The Lightning Switch - Widely considered to be the best bill switch ever.
The Lightning Switch Finale – A $100 bill instantly changes into a $100 silk.

Foiled Again - A simple piece of tin foil, is shown and then visually changes into a silver coin. The coin vanishes completely and then reappears at the fingertips. Finally, it transforms back into the foil which can, again, be examined.

The JSB Topit System - Jay's original design, psychology and handling are recognized as the most practical and sure-fire Topit system ever.

Joining the tour is Lisa Richards; professional magician, costume designer and an expert at installing Topits, Sleeve Pockets and Side Pocket Slits. Advance reservations for this are recommended. However, anyone who just wishes to bring along their jackets can decide after the lecture to have installations done. For prices and reservations please visit: http://www.sewmagical.com
