The Button is a fresh spin on the classic Mystery Box, brought to life by Chris James with routines from Craig Petty, and crafted by the wizards at João Miranda Magic.
At first glance, it screams America's Got Talent vibes: a shiny red buzzer that’s impossible to ignore. But hidden within this flashy piece is one of the most potent tools a magician can stash in their pocket.
This isn’t just another gimmick; it’s a whole system. With over 20 jaw-dropping routines laid out in detail, The Button hands you the keys to creating mind-blowing moments with a simple press. And guess what? The audience does the pressing.
Your spectator hits the button. A sound blares. Magic unfolds. Rinse and repeat.
Then the sound abruptly cuts off. The button appears to be on the fritz. But when you pop it open, they discover their signed playing card chillin' inside.
Every single detail is designed with working pros in mind. It’s tough, trustworthy, and totally customizable. Feel free to upload your own sounds that groove with your performance vibe.
Use it for predictions, ambitious card routines, vanishes, switches, and mind-bending locations. The routines span from intimate close-up miracles to show-stopping stand-up acts.
Plus, there's an exclusive section from Chris James, diving into advanced switches that only the brilliant internal design of the button allows.
This isn't just a rehash of a classic. It's a bold new take. It's fresh, it's original, and it's something your audience won't see coming.
