Having spoken about him in several prior episodes of The Magic News, I’m pleased to say that John Van Der Put joins us in the studio for this last episode of the Smoke & Mirrors Magicast.

John is a prolific creator of magic and mystery, as well as the artistic director of StandNotAmazed theatre company who create magical theatre and theatrical magic. John also has an alter ego who joins us (very briefly) in the studio known simply as Piff The Magic Dragon.

John and I discuss the creation of magic for theatre, his upcoming shows and the moment that Piff was born. John’s writing partner(!) also joins us briefly and we find the one thing that John and Barack Obama have in common. What a rip-roaring show it was!

 

 The Magicast - Episode Eight - John Lenahan [32:51m]: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

A great episode of the podcast this week – magician John Lenahan joins me in the studio to talk about his status as the ‘rogue magician’ after being expelled from The Magic Circle.

We also discuss the cons and scams he investigated and performed as part of his series ‘Hoaxbusters’ which aired on ITV and the nature of exposure in magic. We also chat about The Masked Magician and John’s novel Shadowmagic.

John was a fantastic guest, which may explain why we ran over a little, which is good news for you lovely listeners as this is a bumper edition of the magicast. Enjoy!

I was working with the excellent collective of artists, musicians, producers and film makers known as Jammin’ Crew over the weekend and we made this short interactive magic video as a trailer to my website WorkingMagic.co.uk.

As well asplacing it on my website and YouTube, I thought I’d share it with you, dear listeners. Let me know if I get your card right…
