"BILL GOODWIN LECTURE |
. Bill Goodwin is the resident librarian at the world famous Magic Castle. While relatively unknown in the field, Bill is a star among magic’s cognoscenti, who highly respect him as an exponent, innovator and historian of sleight of hand magic. Possessing unique creative vision and an encyclopaedic knowledge of card sleights, Bill creates magic that is visually startling and direct, this aided by his superlative ability to handle the pasteboards. These talents have earned Bill an underground reputation as one of the greatest card magicians on the planet. Until recently, Bill’s material could only be found in rare periodicals and lecture notes. He has since emerged from the underground, publishing instructional videos showcasing some of his work, which have received critically acclaimed reviews. He has also co-authored one of the great close-up magic periodicals of recent years, Penumbra magazine. Flying down under for the first time, Bill has kindly offered to provide a one-off lecture sharing some of his work. With the exception of a few items, this session will predominantly focus on sleight of hand card magic, ranging from intermediate to advanced skill level. This is a rare opportunity to learn from one of the top card men of our time. You can find out more about Bill Goodwin here: www.billgoodwinmagic.com For the serious card enthusiast, Bill will be giving a four hour workshop on advanced sleight of hand with cards on Saturday afternoon, the 10th of March. Places are strictly limited. Those interested in attending please e-mail David Jones at: magiclads@hotmail.com “You handle cards beautifully. There’s only a few in the country who can touch you” - Dai Vernon “The most brilliant young card man I know” - Larry Jennings “I personally love seeing sleight of hand magic where the moves have been practiced, the sequences thought through and rehearsed until perfected. Bill Goodwin comes to mind. I remember when I first witnessed Bill’s card work. He tipped a routine to me and I was astonished that I’d completely missed 7 moves.” – Bob Kohler Lecture 8.00pm Bernards Magic shop, 187 Elizabeth Street, Melbourne Magician; $25 Partner; $5 |
