 THE SITUATION OF MAGIC IN THE 21ST CENTURY

DUE TO OVERWHELMING DEMAND THIS LECTURE IS SOLD OUT AND WILL NOT BE REPRINTED. SORRY! LOOK FOR THEM ON EBAY!

Once a year Ben Robinson lectures for magic gatherings and shares his views on modern and ancient magic. Ben Robinson considers the art of illusion a genuine art form, like dance, classical music or sculpture. He has had a career of breaking new ground; taking magic where it had only been thought of as children's entertainment.

One patron at Circa Tabac (NYC) said after witnessing Ben Robinson's perfomance, "I have a whole new appreciation of magic as an art. I have never seen something so close-up, so well done. Thank you. You have given me a genuinely new experience."

The goal of these notes: to share the insight Ben Robinson has gained as one of the world's top professional magicians with those struggling to develop their own approach. These 15-page notes cover the perversion of fame, selfless perfomance, where a magician can work, what is wrong with TV magic, the goal of the win-win-win situation and much much more.

No tricks are taught per se, but you will be a better magician from the deep insights presented in these notes. One patron wrote after his November 2003 lecture at Denny & Lee's "Ben Robinson is perhaps the greatest magician I have ever seen. Now I know why, and his lecture was first rate, compelling me to think of things I have never thought of before concerning the art of magic. Bravo!"

Ben Robinson has taught magic to Howard Stern, Diane Keaton, Spain's Trade Commissioner, many corporate executives, and had one student for ten years!

FISM Grand Prix World Champion Magician Johnny Ace Palmer says,

"Ben Robinson is a world class magician."
