I think it would be really helpful and convenient if there were a sticky thread where everyone posted their recommended educational resources (books, DVDs, articles, etc.) on busking.
If for some reason that isn't possible I would still like to hear some suggestions in this this thread. |

Kozmo's DVD "Cellini - The Art of Street Performing #1" is among the very best out there.

Hello,
I recently acquired four or five pristine copies of a book entitled Cellini's Dreamer's Highway. Can find no information about it except some very old posts on the forum, 2010 or so. The book seems to be about street performance and magicianing. Is this book regarded as a relevant resource for street performers or is it too old to mention? Curious book-lover |

Cellini is certainly relevant and there is some great material in Dreamers Highway. It's often not talked about because a great deal of it is just stories. I love my copy!

DVD 'Four of a Kind' is about four busking street magic show performers.
The presentation makes the magic.
