THE LONG & SHORT OF IT is certainly not a coin trick either.

Expect plenty of chuckles and gasps as colourful pieces of wood magically morph in size, creating a feast of visual intrigue.
Inside an elegant burgundy sack, you’ll find four vibrantly-painted, custom-crafted wooden pieces. The beauty of this routine is its versatility – you can tailor the theme to suit your audience’s tastes:

A hilarious recount of your time teaching kindergartners (also known as the day you lost your sanity)
A cheeky dig at poor quality control
The reason you bombed that geometry test (sorry, Mr. Thompson)
The miracle of "adjustable wood" (yes, really)
The power of suggestion (or maybe just a good line)
What went wrong when you tried to assemble that flat-pack furniture from IKEA
Or you could delve into:
