This book has ‘Everything’. The First Edition by Jamie Allan. Illusions, close-up, business know how, and so much more…
‘Everything’ is not a cheap book, but neither is the information inside. One would pay (or lose) small fortunes just to find out the business know how alone.
Also, rights for stage illusions can be very expensive. Not that you would build most of them. But, just take one of the included illusions, such as ‘Speed Bike’, for which I have already been offered large sums NOT to include. Rights for a prop like this would run to well over $2000.

13 STAGE ILLUSIONS
from appearing helicopters, cars and motorcycles to more practical and ‘easy to tour’ stage pieces.
OVER 100 STUNNINGLY DETAILED 3D RENDERED IMAGES
You will have all the information you need to build and perform them.
7 STAGE AND CLOSE UP EFFECTS
From ACAAN on camera, to billets and bullet catches.
STAGE HOLOGRAMS
The real work involved, and insightful information on a subject there is precious little information about;
PROMOTING, PRODUCING AND MARKETING
What’s really involved. From raising capital to booking venues and making deals. What to do and what definitely not to do;
CLOSE UP MAGIC IN CONCERT
The inside look at the real techniques to take close up magic to the largest audiences and make it hit big. The technical and practical know how gleamed from decades of experience;
ILLUSIONARIUM AND MAGIC IMMERSIVE
The inside story on how these multi-million dollar shows came to be, with never before seen technical information on what it takes to stage the world’s largest magic shows during a global pandemic!
AND SO MUCH MORE…
‘Everything’ is not for everyone, but it is for people that are interested in taking their magic to a wider audience. For close-up workers, it will show you how to take your magic to the stage for thousands. For the stage workers, it will describe stage illusion on an epic scale.
And if you’re not remotely interested in the practical details of making cars, motorbikes and helicopters appear and disappear (which are described in intimate detail), or learning the secrets of the bullet catch that fooled everyone, then maybe the more practical stage illusions included are for you.
Even if you hate live illusions and just wanted to improve your show via direction or production value, perhaps the information gleaned from years of performing might be of interest.
And presuming you know all of the above, you might enjoy the information that is more than worth the price of the book, as I give you the inside track on how to promote, produce, and market your shows in theatrical venues across the world. I might even tip that hat on how I raised millions of dollars to produce the largest magic shows in the world during a pandemic.
It’s an honest insight to the highs and lows of the last 40 years of magic and how I made and lost huge sums.
It is not, however, for anyone who does not dream of a better show and a bigger experience for their respective audience.
I have tried to write the book I wish I had owned when I was starting out, as I had to learn the hard way. It’s not been an easy task, but I’m very proud of the end result and slightly worried that I have given too much away.
