COIN BOX KILLERS
Stand-up Routines for the Coin Worker's Favorite Prop - the OKITO COIN BOX by professional magician Doug Brewer.
Each one of these routines has a unique need or presentation built into them. For example, the first three routines, Wile E. Coyote Coin Box, Translocated Okito Box, and The Flying Stupendas, are Doug's "special occasion" routines.
The next two routines, Brass Trio and The Invisible, are Doug's 2 copper/1 silver routines for the coin box and are two of the strongest routines in the book.
The two routines after that are Fidget Simplified (a reworking of one of Doug's favorite spellbound-type routines) and Okit-O, Cheat-O, a routine magician Syd Segal. Both are copper/silver/brass routines that use all three coins to great advantage.
After that, three of Doug's walk-around routines are taught. These are Exporter, Bertram Revisited, and Stand-up Box Through Hand. If anything you learn from this book, include these three. They are strong and practical routines that Doug uses consistently in his strolling and banquet work.
Doug includes a routine called Progressive Assembly. It started out as a challenge with an intriguing plot and a fascinating solution.
Finally, the book concludes with the routines, The Promoter and Rice Surprise, that use the coin box as a production container - an unusual use in most routines. You will be pleasantly surprised at how much magic can be hidden in a simple coin box. Every routine in this book is meant to be performed standing with no lap work required.
Professionally illustrated by Tony Dunn. Available now at Tin City Magic.
