Prepare yourself for the smoothest version of the classic torn and restored newspaper you’ve ever witnessed! Nick’s handling of Alex Elmsley’s brilliant effect is the routine he’s confidently closed his show with for thirty years (yes, you read that right — thirty!). So, why do it in slow motion? Because standing ovations are a regular occurrence when you’ve got a unique twist like this! The slow-motion aspect transforms a decent trick into a show-stopping spectacle, allowing the audience to soak in every jaw-dropping moment of the restoration.
Every single move and subtlety in the preparation and presentation of the routine is laid out in exquisite detail. If you’re itching to add this classic effect to your repertoire, you won’t find a better way to learn it. The instruction on this DVD is meticulously crafted and complete (they really don’t leave anything out). The performer’s POV video illustrating the construction of the gimmick shows you exactly how to do it RIGHT. Not one move, tip, or wrinkle is left un-revealed; it’s a true learning experience.
Mr. Elmsley himself has declared this the most effective handling of his effect he’s ever seen. With the instructions on this DVD and a smidge of practice, you’ll soon be dazzling audiences with one of the most impactful routines in magic. Nick even closed his award-winning show in Las Vegas with this effect for five years and featured it on his ACE-nominated performance on the Wise Guys Tonight television special.
