Make Your Own Magic by David Tomkins

David has been a professional children’s entertainer with over 30 years experience, and is also well known for his original magic creations. Now you can get the benefit of both sides of David’s magical skills: you can see David performing live some of his very best original routines and then discover how to make them so that you can include them in your own show.

On this DVD, David presents 6 terrific routines – all performed live to a very enthusiastic crowd! – and then, in the studio, each one is meticulously explained.

Here’s the list:

Barmy Bunnies – a flat pack item with large cards and a really lively plot;

Rainbow Ribbons – David’s clever handling of colourful ribbons which link and then become a huge circle – all in the hands of a child;

Do-As-I-Do Sponge Ball Boxes – to see it is to want it! Balls keep appearing in completely empty boxes, with great participation;

Twenty First Century Wand – a vanished silk appears tied between two others in an outsize wand, but that doesn’t begin to describe the fun you’ll have with this clever prop;

Find the Donkey – another flat pack winner. Lots of pictures of animals: the children have to find the donkey, but, at the end, there’s a BIG surprise!;

Sweet Surprise – very magical production of sweets as the sweet container keeps getting bigger and BIGGER!

The props are easy to make, but, with any one of these routines, you will be able to offer something really different in your shows
