Bob Read...At His Best! If you’ve heard the legends about Bob Read, prepare to have your socks knocked off! This bloke was a magician with skills that could make you weep with envy, and he had a knack for tickling your funny bone whilst pulling off the impossible. Now, for the first time ever on DVD, you can witness the magic maestro in action—everything you’ve heard is spot on...and then some. And wait for it—this exclusive release includes over 30 minutes of footage that’s been gathering dust until now. It’s Bob Read in his prime, all digitally restored from the original raw footage (originally released by Videonics).
Every classic you know and love—those tricks that turned Bob into a legend among the crème de la crème of magicians—are right here. You’ve got the mind-boggling Bottle Production, the side-splitting Knife Through Coat, the astonishing Transpo Tumbler, and heaps more! And get this: many of these effects can be done with borrowed bits and bobs! After a performance that’ll have you gasping in delight, sit back and enjoy one of the most in-depth explanations ever filmed. Bob takes you through not just the methods, but the history, the subtle nuances, and the cheeky bits of business that made these tricks his calling card.
Oh, and he’ll also share his thoughts on what makes good magic good (and bad magic, well, bad).
This DVD is Bob Read's legacy to the magic community—captured forever and ready to inspire and educate future generations about the art from a true master.
