Off-Beat Circus
Product ID: 1920
A splendid children and family audience effect based on my item Off-Beat which I originally marketed as a close-up trick in 1958.
Off-Beat Circus is perfect for the close-up, walkabout and stand-up entertainer. It has a baffling method that is easy to do and quickly re-set.
You show ten face down colourful laminated A5 jumbo circus cards (and only ten are used – no extras).
Two spectators, children or adults, each select a different card and these are shown faces to the audience alongside each other where it is seen that they exactly match each other being both elephant pictures.
The audience naturally suspect that the remaining eight also match the two chosen ones; in other words you have ten cards that have all the same elephant picture upon them.
As if reluctantly, you admit that the cards you are left with are all the same and these cards are now turned faces upwards to show that this is true, but when you show them they do NOT match the two chosen elephants. All these eight cards exactly match each other but are pictures of naughty monkeys fooling everyone with their magical antics!
Incredibly, the participants have chosen the two odd elephant cards out of the packet of ten!
The ten cards can now be left for the audience to examine to their hearts’ content.
Off-Beat Circus is always ready to perform, no matter what the occasion. It is also easy-to-do!
Supplied complete with the ten A5 Jumbo laminated picture cards & full instructions.
