Party Tips:
If your guests are expected to bring their own booze, let them know in the invitation. If you are serving alcohol don't forget the ice. You can never have too much ice at a party. Use quality ice for the best tasting mixed drinks. Add fresh fruit to your shopping list. Limes, lemons and oranges should be sliced in advance. Consider making two punch bowls; one with booze and one without for your non-imbibing guests. Remember, you are responsible for the safety of your guests so do not encourage excessive drinking.
Larger illusions like the Zigzag are not appropriate for every show but when you can do them they are lot of fun and add an extra element of excitement to the show.
Tips for Magicians:
