LECTURES: Naturally, the top attraction of the weekend's events will be lectures by all 4 of our mega-star magicians: Daryl, Whit Hayden, Wayne Houchin, and "TBA". These are some of the hottest performers and lecturers in the world - and wildly entertaining people! You can bank on learning a lot from each and every one of them!
STAGE SHOW: It looks like we'll be adding a stand up show on Saturday night featuring outr headliners and a few local surprises. We're still mulling over what to put on Friday night. Give us some time and we'll see what we can put together...
MARQUEE CLOSE UP SHOWS: You'll see all 4 of our heavyweights doing close up shows genuinely close up! Us attendees will be grouped in 3 or 4 rooms, and the performers will rotate around so everybody gets to see each one perform in this genuinely intimate setting.
PANEL DISCUSSION: We'll have our 4 headliners on stage together talking about topics of their choosing as well as topics you bring up. Watch the chemistry take it's course.
SPECIAL WORKSHOPS: We're working on having some special workshops on Sunday. Specialized workshops like coins, cards, or kid show tips.
JAM SESSIONS: An array of host magicians will lead a series of workshops, focusing on specific topics. We have some top guys who are experts on subjects you're sure to be interested in learning more about! We're also sure to have many informal jam sessions, with any and everyone rolling up their sleeves and digging in!
CONTEST: The theme of this year's contest is still to be decided. Last year's was a stand-up parlor magic, with each person getting 2-6 minutes. Prizes included over $300 in no-strings-attached magic store certificates, plus other items donated by the lecturers.
DEALERS TABLES: In addition to magic dealers having tables, on Sunday we'll also have a special communal table where anybody can sell or swap their own items.
THE MAN, THE MIND, THE MAGIC: If we can fit it in the schedule, we'll have a screening of the Jerry Andrus documentary, with the director Robert Neary making a special appearance to say a few words and answer questions. Link to movie and trailer
