I'm not familiar with Henry Evans. Looks like he'll be teaching quite a bit. Are there any stand out effects that he's known for?

Though will be a great and entertaining lecture... (Ive seen Hwwnry lecture twice b4), it might be dealer demos galore with effects you won't be able to perform without buying his effects. I hope he spends a lot of time discussing his thoughts on the trick that can not be explained.

He's going to teach The ten exact cuts! It's a $40 marketed effect, but you can make it yourself.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QDR_9V11D......be&t=14s Here's what Doc Eason said about Ten Exact Cuts: "A visiting magician performed this for me. I had not ever seen it before. I shuffled the cards and he took the deck back, showed the cards thoroughly shuffled. He then quickly cut it into 10 piles. The first packet had just one card! The second packet contained two cards, the third three cards and so on, all the way through to the last packet containing exactly 10 cards! I was mildly impressed but that was just the start. The top card of each packet is then turned over (remember I shuffled the deck!), and the first card is the Ace of Spades. The card on top of the second packet is the Two of Spades, on top of the third packet is the Three of Spades and so on all the way through the rest of the packets! My jaw began to drop. The Ace through Ten of Spades are then set aside and the deck is reassembled. I was more impressed. The Jack, the Queen and King of Spades were produced with a flourish! I was reeling from this when he cut the deck again into three piles and each contained thirteen cards of the remaining suits, in numerical order! I was blown away. Knocked me off my barstool". |

Henry Evans is one of the most underestimated magicians of last 10 years or so and mainly for one reason... He uses gimmicks... A LOT OF EM! Purists and technicians don't like this but they also miss that most of Evans magic looks like real magic. Most of his effects look like magic just happens. He doesn't do anything! But as mentioned this "cleanliness" has its price.
Its interesting to see the list of the effects above since most of em are gaffed and dealer items. Penguin lectures havent usually been "dealer demos" so it will be interesting to see how this lecture will work. But one thing is certain, there will be lot of clear and visual effects. J-M |

I love watching what Henry Evans comes up with but as a Penguin Lecture I'm just not sure about this one, since most of the content IS going to be 'gaffed' - and heavily so. It'll be great to see his thinking but I suspect very little in terms of routines to take away and perform.

Henry Evans is so good, I don't want to know the secrets, because it looks like real magic. Just frightening stuff.

Wow!!! What else is there to say? My only other question is why did he need an interpreter? His English is excellent and his accent is charming. He totally fooled me and was very entertaining.

This was one of the best lectures I have ever seen. I will likely write a formal review after watching it again, but it was absolutely amazing.
I am a big fan of Richard Osterlind's. When he lectures, he always brings in real world experience, and he shows a tremendous respect and admiration for the classics of mentalism. Henry Evans is that way with the classics of magic. This was incredible. It is definitely a must-have lecture if you do magic. Bobby

Years ago, I had a telephone conversation with Ken de Courcy (RIP), and he told me, "Sleight of hand is a gimmick you do not have to get rid of."
We all use gimmicks. Bobby

I do love these Penguin lectures, however I do hate how they advertise that you can 'DOWNLOAD NOW!' if you purchase. They tweet to this effect also... however this simply isn't true - you cannot buy and download NOW. You have to wait until the lecture is uploaded, which is generally 24-48 hours after the event.
Now I don't have a problem with waiting but I do have a problem with being told that it's available NOW when this is simply not true. Anyway, patiently waiting for this one to be uploaded so I can download NOW!
