"A brilliant mixture of methods, revelations and a beautiful kicker ending. I would do this in any of my shows in a heartbeat." - Marc Spelmann (X)
"I have never been so fooled. This is an incredibly practical routine that is so easy to do and really clever. I always knew combining the minds of Nikolas Mavresis & David Jonathan would create something fantastic, but I couldn't have imagined it would be this good. This is going straight into my act and staying there!" - Craig Petty
PR3MIERE is a dazzling, multi-layered routine from the magic masterminds Nikolas Mavresis and David Jonathan. Drawing inspiration from their passion for cinema, this trick is a cinematic delight accompanied by a method so clever it deserves an Oscar.
Picture this: five envelopes, each representing a different film genre, are shuffled about. A volunteer picks one at random and sneakily checks out the movie poster inside – let’s say it’s 8 Mile (because who doesn’t love Eminem?).
Now, those envelopes are lined up, and five tokens make their grand entrance. The participant places these tokens on the envelopes in their own chaotic order. Then, the movie posters are pulled out, and one by one, the tokens are flipped over. To everyone's shock, each token displays a number that perfectly matches its corresponding film – what are the odds?!
And like any great film, the grand finale packs a twist that’ll leave jaws on the floor. The numbers on the tokens magically morph into letters, spelling out 8 Mile – the very film they chose! It’s a show-stopping conclusion that’ll have your audience buzzing.
A multi-layered method with top-notch, custom-engineered props that do the heavy lifting for you
The tokens are available for your audience to examine (go on, let them!)
Super easy to perform with absolutely zero sleight of hand, so you can focus on the showmanship
Stunning custom artwork featuring iconic films designed by Phill Smith
Multiple versions covered in detail, just in case you like a little variety
