High Roller Coaster
The serial number of a borrowed bill is written on a coaster. This bill vanishes magically. After a guessing game with the coasters, the bill appears inside the coaster with its serial number written on it. Andi Gladwin wrote: “It’s an almost-impromptu trick that is perfect for bar magicians or impromptu performances.”
Word of The Day
A favorite of Fritz: your word of the day and the participant’s word of the day switch places in a magical way. Ravi Mayar called it a piece of incredible magic.
Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?
A funny, interactive, motivated routine with money. This is Fritz’s preference to get donations when performing bar magic.
King of my Castle
Inspired by Chris Mayhew and Luke Dancy, this entertaining routine is a handling of the Sandwich plot but with a twist.
Mont(e) Blanc
Designed for the strolling magician, Fritz shares a Monte routine that you can adapt to any occasion (including an impossible finale).

Voodoo
A participant holds your business card. You burn and tear another one of your business cards. As in traditional voodoo, the participant’s business card has a burn and a tear in the exact same place as yours. Spooky…
