3. The Magic Word Podcast With Mat Franco And Andrew Goldenhersh
--------------------------------------------
Message by Scott Wells, M.I.M.C. with Gold Star

What a way to wrap up the final episode of the Las Vegas Chronicles on The Magic Word Podcast. Winner of Season Nine of "America's Got Talent [sic]" (AGT) and star of his own Las Vegas show, Mat Franco joined us last week to talk about his experience on AGT. As you can imagine, his experience was quite different from any of the other magicians I have chatted with who have appeared on the show. After all Mat won the one million dollar prize and got the dream job on the Las Vegas Strip!

In this podcast, Mat talks about why he auditioned for AGT and what he hoped and expected. He also talks about developing his show, his effects and his career. Mat's show is more "personality driven" rather than focusing on big box illusions, dancing girls, lights, smoke and mirrors. He is genuinely engaging on stage and his show is near perfection. After performing on the Strip for over 18 months, his sold-out audiences must agree with me.

You can watch a compilation video of his appearances on AGT, see some candid photos I took back stage in the dressing room, read the blog, listen to the podcast online and download the MP3 at: https://www.themagicwordpodcast.com/scottwellsmagic/mat-franco

This week on The Magic Word, we start to catch up with some of the podcasts that have been "resting" while we brought you the Las Vegas Chronicles. We kick off with a chat with Andrew Goldenhersh, two time winner of the Academy of Magical Arts "Parlour Magician of the Year". When this was recorded in mid-February, Andrew had just been notified that he was again nominated to be the "Close-Up Magician of the Year". Well, the awards banquet has come and gone, so…spoiler alert: Richard Turner won.

But this podcast is not about that nomination nor his awards. During our discussion, Andrew talked about his consulting work with other magicians including Jason Alexander ("George Castanza" on the hit TV show, "Seinfeld"). But then we get down to it and focus on how to structure an act, how he learned to improve his performance when he lived in Japan and learned an act in a new language, the importance of silence and pauses. This is a fantastic podcast full of ideas and advice from a real working professional. The direct link to this podcast is at: https://www.themagicwordpodcast.com/scottwellsmagic/andrew-goldenhersh

Since I have been talking a lot recently about creativity in magic and how you can open yourself up to being more creative with your magic, I have gotten a lot of requests from folks wondering if there are any brain storming techniques that can be used to help in the creative process. I would like to share with you one of the techniques I use most often and that has really helped me out over the years. I hope it might do the same for you.

Being an artist and graphic designer, I have always used different creative and brain storming techniques to generate art ideas for my fine art as well as my logo designs. I just had never thought about the fact that some of these techniques that I had always used, could not only carry over to magic, but could really work well.

The problem with creativity and brain storming is that we cannot always focus as much as we want to be able to. There are so many outside influences and distractions that prevents our mind from staying on topic. We tend to drift around too much and never get a chance to lock in on some great ideas and to really explore them in detail.

The other problem is that we over think things too much. We often get hung up on trying to be creative and trying hard to figure out a particular idea, that we allow other great ideas to just roll on by our mind. All this frustration often leads to lack of creativity and so we shy away from trying it again out of fear.

So how can you brain storm effectively to really generate results while avoiding some of these more common pitfalls? Well, one suggestion is to occupy your mind and teach your mind to think a certain way by simply fooling it. The mind is great at doing tasks and accomplishing them. When your mind is actively involved in a step by step process, there is no time for it to wander like it often does in most creative processes that we have used in the past.

One way to do this is a form of brain storming that was taught to me years ago and that I have modified since then over time. It is a process that focuses the mind to being creative even if it does not realize it is doing so.

It works something like this: Start off with an idea that you have for an act, routine or even a show. Figure out to yourself what are the main words or ideas that you want to generate ideas for in this new act or routine. Try and come up with the single words that best reflect this act.

For example, let's use the idea of coming up with a magical routine that is themed around the idea of art. When we look at it we get two main words that are the focus for this act. Those words are "art" and "magic". Next, take out a sheet of paper and on the left side of the page, write the word art on the top. Now go over to the right side of the page and write the word Magic. Start with the word art. Start to think of any word that you can think of that has to do with the word art. The idea here is a free-flowing generation of words.

You are not trying to develop ideas or thoughts. Just simply write down words that you associate to the word art. Some of these words might be; paper, color, paint, paintbrush, easel etc. I think you get the idea. Now you do the same thing for the word magic. Just generating words and not stopping to dwell on any of them.

Once you have compiled your lists, the fun and creativity really starts to happen. The idea is to start to cross reference words from both lists to generate new words and new creative ideas. For example you may take the word paintbrush from one list and the word "vanish" from the other list. All of a sudden you generate the idea of a vanishing paintbrush. You keep doing this by cross-referencing other words together.

By doing this, your teaching your brain to stay focused by occupying it with a select group of steps it must do. But in the end your generating ideas and creative thoughts that you may not have come up with on your own or in other means. It really does work and is quite amazing what can be generated just from this simple process.

I hope you may give this a try. If you do, please let me know how it works out for you. I am sure it will work. I can almost guarantee you will create better ideas and at a faster rate than ever before.

If anyone would like other thoughts on this, or a better explanation of the process, please just e-mail me at magic4u02@aol.com. I would be happy to discuss it more with you. What other brain storming techniques have worked for you?

6. End of an Era

Message by Michael Lyons

Davenport's Magic Kingdom has been placed into administration. A large site with a reasonable admission charge that contained many items owned by the legendary Davenport family has been forced to close as well as seeing the many exhibits and watching excellent close up magic there was also a big stage show.

Many have commented on the "...value for money..." the enterprise was known for. It is very sad that such a wholesome activity has had to end so suddenly.

Article forward by Peter Phillips (UK)

Just Regional

The magic-themed family attraction, Davenport's Magic Kingdom, in North Walsham, has been closed and placed into voluntary liquidation following a legal dispute.

An ongoing dispute with a former consultant to the business resulted in a legal bill of almost £60,000 and as a result, the business was unable to continue trading and the directors took steps to appoint Jamie Playford of Leading Corporate Recovery as liquidator of the company on 23 February 2017.

The attraction housed the Davenport family's extensive magic collection of artefacts and memorabilia spanning almost 500 years, as well as providing a fun and interactive space for museum displays, a magic theatre, gift shop and café.

Prior to opening in May 2013, the Davenport family committed over £1m to building the attraction.

In 2015, visitor numbers decreased and operational costs had increased, causing some cash flow difficulties. The business sought a financial rescue package from the director and his family and friends in order to fund ongoing trading.

The business had accumulated creditors of £1.7 million, of which £1.4m was owed to the Davenport family. The closure resulted in two immediate redundancies although other staff had been laid off over recent months.

Fourth-generation magician and current managing director, Roy Davenport, is currently in talks with Mr Playford to produce a rescue package.

Mr Playford said of the closure: "It is always sad to see a local attraction such as this forced into liquidation, however the local community have expressed their support for the Davenport family and so we are hopeful that a rescue package can be formulated over the coming weeks. We are looking at the detail of the proposals and hope to make a decision in the next week or so."

Mr Davenport added: "Of course it is very unfortunate to have to go through this process. I am grateful to everyone who has supported us in so many ways over the last years. We are putting all our efforts into a possible rescue package and are hopeful that we can save our unique British magic collection and continue to make it accessible to all."

9. Trix In The Stix Review
--------------------------------------------
Message by Quentin Reynolds (UK)

The fifth TRIX annual convention for children's entertainers took place on Monday and Tuesday 22nd and 23rd May in Shropshire, England. And what a fun couple of days it was.

The Monday night cabaret, regarded as the best yet featured Quentin Reynolds, Max Fulham, Ken Scott from the US, and Rafael from Belgium. Followed by the Breakaway Wand Show - an irreverent topical look at magic today - featuring John Kimmons, Gary Dunn, Max Fulham and George Quinn, Tamar Louise Kimmons, and Wyn Merlin Jones.

Tuesday morning started with Power Presentations from Master Payne (via long range telepathy) and Max Fulham. Max is 17 and already displaying star quality. His presentation and his cabaret spot showcased his originality, comedic, and presentational skills.

Quentin Reynolds lectured featuring five routines, most requiring minimal props yet generating maximum laughter. Ken Scott, the most 'normal' American we've had at TRIX impressed everyone with his humour, personality and his magic. The queue after his lecture was evidence enough to show the impression he made.

Two more Power Presentations from Julie Carpenter, on how to remember names, and `Martin Duffy on educational shows and how to develop them.

Rafael's lecture was like watching a mix of Ali Bongo and Gaeton Bloom. Strong, direct effects using simple methods.. He surprised everyone who had only ever seen his Vampire illusion act. Ken Scott finished the evening covering magic theory, presentational ideas, and getting bookings.

Ireland's Pat Fallon hosted the convention, introduced everyone and made sure everything ran smoothly and on time.

Featured throughout were many short video clips put together by John Kimmons, all expertly edited. If John wasn't a magician, I think he would be a movie or TV producer/director/editor/scriptwriter/actor.

TRIX was dedicated to the late Jeremy Le Poidevin and many tributes were paid to him, with a very special one put together by John Kimmons.

Cheryl Le Poidevin, who along with Jeremy ran Practical Magic and the TRIX convention, paid her own tribute and announced that the business will now be carried forward by Gary Dunn, himself a professional children's entertainer of vast experience.

Next year's TRIX will be on 21st and 22nd May and already booked are Thom Peterson, Christopher T. Magician, and Alberto Nava. It will be run by the team of John Kimmons and Gary Dunn.

Message by James Hamilton

Our Good Friend and Mentor, James Hamilton

On Sunday, May 21 I happened upon a posting on Facebook asking if anyone could confirm a rumor that James Hamilton has passed away. I took a deep breath of disbelief. That couldn't be possible. But soon it was confirmed by his long-time close friend, Margaret Steele. It seems that he was diagnosed with liver cancer six weeks before but did not want the news to be known. Margaret reported that he did not suffer and passed away peacefully at the California Pacific Medical Center in San Francisco on May 20, 2017.

I am still in disbelief that this grand wizard will no longer show us how a classic prestidigitator makes audience believe in the impossible.

Long-time San Francisco professional magician and magic historian James Hamilton (born James Hamilton. Muszalski) was 74. He performed around the globe and was especially in demand in the San Francisco area and Hollywood where he impressed celebrities at private parties. His intimate shows are not as well-known as his stage presentations but he was able to adapt to any setting. James appeared on television and movies, was a member of the Magic Castle and the Magic Circle of London, both having hosted his performances and lectures on magic history, and well he was the Magic Consultant for the San Francisco Performing Arts Library & Museum.

But I think his most lasting contribution to the art will be his exhaustive research on magic history with a focus on Alexander and Adelaide Herrmann. James was serious about his portrayal of Alexander Herrmann---he even looked like him. Though his planned book-length biography of the Great Herrmanns is not completed, James wrote seven fascinating monographs including A Short Biography of Alexander Herrmann and Adelaide Herrmann (1994) and a Genii cover story on Adelaide (2000).

Margaret Steele was his partner in research and played Adelaide when they recreated the Herrmann act.

Margaret had recently posted on the Thayer Magic forum:

"James has been researching the Herrmanns for decades, and he did it in the old-fashioned, pre-Internet way, physically traveling to libraries, universities and other sources all over the U.S. and Europe. I'm the spoiled Internet researcher, obsessively mining hundreds of digitized newspaper and genealogical records without having to walk out my door.

I'm ever mindful that I stand on James' shoulders and owe an enormous debt to his years as the Herrmanns' gumshoe detective. There's still plenty of Herrmann information, undigtized and undiscovered, waiting in libraries across the U.S. May James inspire us to find - and share - it."

**********************
In 1955 James co-founded The Long Beach Mystics with a group of other teenagers. He wrote, "I still vividly recall the last Saturday of May 1955 when an excited group of us budding magicians gathered in the back room of Brownie's Hobby and Magic Shop. The atmosphere was electric, we had all signed up for a magic club. That night we voted and selected the name 'Long Beach Mystics." It is a name that commands respect and awe among magicians. It was a unique club, one that probably had few equals. Brownie and others not only guided us in learning magic….but MOST importantly HOW to perform magic.

I had the privilege of being part of a hard-core group of us that met on Saturday mornings to learn how to speak, handle props, walk, take a bow, dress, hygiene, grooming, thinking on your feet and all the myriad of things a magician needs to know... but which many dismiss as trivial.

I think all of the members feel honored and lucky to have been a part of the Long Beach Mystics. I say that in the past tense, however, it is a continuing fellowship that will last for eternity."

Many members of the club went on to become some of the country's top magicians. In 2003 the Magic Castle hosted a Long Beach Mystics Week.

*****************
I had been a teen member of the Oakland Magic Circle in the early and mid-1960s. We had a "junior" division where established magicians helped us with our presentation and many of the concerns James mentions.

In 1983, I rejoined the Oakland Magic Circle. One of the first people I met was James Hamilton, looking every bit the classic professional that he was with that goatee and always in appropriate attire when he performed.

After meetings, a bunch of us would go to Dave's Coffee Shop (open 24/7) to share ideas and effects late into the night. James was always generous with ideas to improve one's craft and lead us in new directions - sometimes that might be time-tested ideas from the past but new to us.

James traveled from his home in San Francisco to the Oakland Magic Circle. If a performer was willing to hear serious constructive thoughts about their act, James was willing to work with them. He was President of OMC in 1985, 2000, and 2006.

I loved watching him perform and though I did not think I ever wanted to see another Linking Rings routine, James did the classic one with such style and grace that I could watch it over and over.

In 2001, I saved the Balboa Theatre in San Francisco and decided to celebrate its birthday by recreating a night at the movies in 1926, the year it opened. That meant a silent feature, trailers, shorts and newsreel on the big screen accompanied by live music and a vaudeville show. Who more perfect than James to be the grand finale? He dressed perfectly and brought magic that would have been performed in the jazz era, keeping in character with comments on current events (1926) and plenty of corny humor mixed with appropriate drama.

That first year I had found some newspapers for the day the theater opened. We were showing Rudolph Valentino's The Eagle and the headline read that the actor had been hurt in a car accident driving from SF to LA. We claimed a phone call had been made to his manager and he was doing OK. On the same front page was an article about Houdini testifying to Congress and when James came on he continued our fun by telling the audience, "Harry Houdini very much wanted to be here tonight for the opening of the Balboa but as you may have read in this morning's Call-Bulletin (holding up the front page) he is in Washington D.C. speaking to the Congress. But Harry asked me to send his best wishes for a great opening and asked me to perform some magic for you."

Over the next twelve years we tried to find ways to make his part of the show truly unique, as he would be doing miracles from long ago, often using vintage props. When we showed The Black Pirate and seven years later Peter Pan, he appropriately did "Card in Sword." For L Etty Of The Moran, a drama set at sea, he did the "Monkey Bar" with three fish at the end of the ropes and also caught fish in the air with his magical net.

James may have met more great magicians than anyone else I know. We could not get enough of his stories. Sometimes I was lucky enough to have met these performers and when the book by Milo & Roger, "A Magical Life" was published we both enthused about having known them and loving one of the funniest acts we had ever seen. Their live duck routine was fantastic (starts at 3:30 in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b4J5a4rrm28.)

Planning the next Balboa Birthday Bash I said that in tribute to Milo & Roger it would be a fun inside joke for Jim to perform his wonderful "Educated Duck" routine. I had not told him that I would be showing Gus Vissar And His Talking Duck which he had never seen. Those who knew James have enjoyed his wonderful laugh but I never heard him howl so much with pleasure as when he saw this very short film and it made his performance extra fun for everyone.

A few weeks later I came across a very lifelike, large duck puppet that had a similar quack and brought it to his apartment with a DVD of the film. More laughter. I wish I had a recording of it.

The same year that the movie Hugo was released, Serge Bromberg also finished his restoration of the great A Trip To The Moon. I asked James if he would perform as George Méliès - he looked a lot like the magician/filmmaker - and he relished the idea. We first showed a couple of Méliès magic shorts and then announced that we found him at a tiny toy and candy shop in a Paris train station and convinced him to return one more time the stage, especially for our audience. James became Georges! It was truly magical.

For our first run engagements of The Illusionist and The Prestige James delighted audiences who had no idea they would get a live show too.
