HERE is a great and honest review of INSTANT EVERYTHING and NO SMOKING ZONE by MJ Marrs.
I just got the "No Smoking" and "Instant
Everything" DVDs. I'm pleased with the purchase. The self-contained set
up using the pack of cigarettes (No Smoking) is a really cool idea and
it makes the effect ultimately practical and it's the version I will
probably end up using; I especially like that the props don't get in the
way of other routines. Nathan provides different versions so as to
allow individuals to choose which one fits them the best.
It seems to me from only one viewing of the DVD that one could use
the No Smoking principle at any time during a performance. In other
words, it is not limited to an opening trick.
The Instant Everything is also a cool idea that is totally
outside-of-the-box thinking. I'm not quite as excited to start working
on using this principle as I am with the No Smoking, but I could
definitely see myself someday down the road employing use of the concept
for a portion of my multiple selection card routine. Once again, the
props used are conducive to being easily carried and stored so they
don't get in the way of other routines; this makes things practical for
folks like me who don't want to spend the time or energy to reorganize
the prop arrangement that I've been using for years.
Best,
MJ
I've been in Canada for over two weeks filming with Lee Asher, Wayne Houchin, Greg Frewin and his incredible crew. Tomorrow will be the last day of work and I'm sad and happy. Happy I get a few days off but sad I'll be leaving my friends. Greg and his family and everyone at the Frewin Theater are amazing. He has the best crew ever. Best team working with him on stage.
I can't wait to come back!!!
Next stop is Cleveland for a lecture on the 15th and then back to Canada!
Howdy Folks!
This coming Monday (August 22nd) Wayne Houchin and I will be guest
performers in Greg Frewin's show at Niagara Falls. After the show we
will be filming something very special at the AG bar next door along
with the one and only Lee Asher. If you're in the area (or can be in
the area) come enjoy the show & hang out with us afterwards!
I arrived in Toronto yesterday to pick up Lee Asher and Wayne Houchin. We traveled to Niagara Falls today and will be here for the next days working with Greg Frewin on a fun and exciting project. Asher took us to the TNT Market today in Toronto. Houchin and I loaded up on some serious chili and hot sauce, fine cheese, and well.......if the earth ends tomorrow we have great snacks.
Can't wait for Lee to cook! haha...
Greg has an awesome show that runs nightly in Niagara Falls with lions, tigers and dancing girls. Oh my...
For now I'm just hoping I can keep from being eaten by a tiger.
I love Canada!
Later,

One for the kiddies: How about changing a stick of candy into a toothbrush? Good oral hygiene and all that. Parents would dig that, and my dentist would love you.

I was just thinking about this effect and the possibilities. While I think this effect is aimed towards magicians, you also could aim it towards mentalists. What about a billet switch with No Smoking? That seems more than plausible. Or you could do a version of Derren Brown’s Smoke. I just think this effect can really be pushed towards the mentalist demographic as well.

Great news.
I have to admit the response to this effect has been crazy. I mentioned on The Magic Cafe that when I performed this effect for David Copperfield he and I came up with some cool ideas. ONE of them was to have a borrowed dollar bill change into an origami bill while at your lips. Call it ORAL GAMI. HAH. Another idea was to have a french fry change into a chicken nugget or a carrot. You really are only limited by your imagination by this effect! Do you have a great idea with this? PLEASE POST IT HERE. If its good I'll share it with everyone.
