Twisting The Universe by Bob Kohler
This is my final solution for Dai Vernon’s “Twisting The Aces”. This routine has stood the test of time over thousands of performances! I call my version “Twisting The Universe”. This is a unique premise that really sets up the clarity of the plot.
So what makes my version unique? The answer is each phase of the routine is different. The repetition is gone. There is a surprise effect during each of the four phases!
This version is a showstopper! The last two phases have never been released before, these changes take the routine up to truly show level status!
It’s an extremely practical routine. It has been one of my favorite strolling openers for 30 years. It also works well in a formal show. It’s been turned into a visual masterpiece.
No gaffs involved. Intermediate card handling skills of sleight of hand are required.
