Dear Friends:
Our good friend and master teacher Ross Johnson shared this amazing quote at our recent class:
HOW DO I DO IT? I’ll share a few of my secrets about secrets!
We all want to perform more shows, better shows, and perhaps even make some good money doing it. However, we all need help along the way. Many of us need specialized information to get ahead.
You may not have research materials. I can help you explore one of the largest magic archives in the world. The Mystery School Library & archives are an amazing resource awaiting you. In our coaching sessions I can find the information you need, or help you find it!
You may need a prop builder. I can help you find one to make your ideas into reality. I’ve worked with many of the best in the world, and I am aware of others who will just not deliver. I can help you avoid costly mistakes!
You may be a great scriptwriter! If you are, I can help you polish your scripts. If you are not a great scriptwriter, I can help you find the right words. I can also connect you to a writer to help guide you through this essential process.
You may not have a composer or music consultant. I can help you get the music you need to add the soundscape and new musical dimensions to your show.
You might not have an agent. I’ve worked with agents all over the world, and know what they are looking for, and how to get them interested in working with you.
You may not have an art director. I can connect you to excellent artists that can custom craft images for your marketing and publicity materials.
You may need more than what is mentioned above–a new promo video, exciting lighting design, choreography, adding transitions to your act–the list is endless!
We all need a good director. That’s where I can help you the most. Not just making theatrical choices, but I can help as a life coach to help you make informed choices on and off the stage.
We all need to train and study. We need the best books, DVDs training materials– and yes, we need to purchase new tricks. I can help guide you to the very best. I can save you thousands of dollars by helping you avoid buying junk. I have direct knowledge of many of the new releases on the market. I also have insider friends all over the magic industry who inform me of what is hot and what is not.
Mostly we need motivation and people to help cheer us on, to champion us, to encourage our dreams. We need more of this magical support in our lives.
I’m here to help you, and here is how:

How do I do it?
I’ll share a few of my secrets about secrets!
When people see a magic show, they often say “How did you do that?†but what the real question should be is, “How can I do that?†Not just the trick–but how to live the magic life. Over the past 30 years I have been teaching people who did ask me the correct question. I help many people live the magic dream.

For over 25 years I’ve been touring the world on luxury cruise liners performing my magic shows! Only now, at this exclusive class will some of the world’s top cruise ship entertainers and I share our knowledge and experience with our friends and students.
