One of the world’s most famous SHOCK magicians came to Penguin for a twisted live lecture experience you won’t forget.

Dove From Sketch Pad
Direct from Dan’s award winning dove act that has taken him around the world you draw a simple outline drawing of a bird on a spiral notebook then tear off the paper and a live dove is produced from the paper. It is self contained and can easily be made at home with the appropriate materials and he will show you everything you need to know to put it together and how to even substitute different objects to produce from the paper if producing a dove isn’t your style.
Go Eat Worms
A throw-back to Dan’s days as a full-time Kids and Family show magician. Take a bag of candy gummy worms and hand a few out to your audience or let them pick their favorite gummy worm and give it to them to eat. You have one person think of their favorite worms to eat and you will turn the entire bag of gummy worms into that flavor. The spectator is asked to hold their hands open and as you dump the bag of gummy worms into their hands they transform into real live earth worms.

Made In China
Borrow any bill of any currency of any denomination and cause an image/watermark of anything to appear printed on the bill when it is held up to the light — much like how many currencies have hidden faces and magnetic strips in it that are only visible when held up to the light this will allow you to reveal anything such as playing cards, words, symbols, etc. But when the spectator tries to find it the image has vanished.
Self-Inflating Balloon
Perfect for any variations from popped and restored balloon to just causing a balloon to inflate on its own in a silent manipulation routine, clown show, kid show, any time necessary two versions and a plethora of ideas utilizing these two methods are shown and discussed.
Graffiti Balloon
Take a can of “spray paint” and spray a balloon to have it instantly change color or pop and transform into a silk or produce a dove or beer bottle, etc. Dan teaches you how to construct a simple gimmick to deliver the method to have a balloon pop on your command without having to even touch it as well as endless possibilities and various presentation ideas.
Cookie Cutter
A game of Russian roulette with a razor blade and several sandwich cookies.
Prince of Darkness
Visually bite off a dove’s head, chew it up, and spit it back on…much cooler than the silly bite quarter gag
Always Remember To Floss
Dan’s self-contained version of the razor blade swallowing/threading illusion that’s adaptable for close-up, street, parlour, and stage.
How to Make Poop
When Dan was a full time Kid and Family magician one of the highlights of his birthday party show was having a dove poop on the birthday kid. This is how to make that happen whenever you want in your show too.
