This time, his captivating stories, ranging from the history of magic (Robert-Houdin, Houdini, Copperfield, Magic Tom…) to the surprising experiences he's had over his 35-year career, will lead the renowned judge of La magie des stars (TVA) to dazzle you with his elusive performances, his historical knowledge, and his storytelling prowess.

Toronto and Montreal: Rick Holcombe on Coin Magic (Fusion Lecture) [Nov 19 - 21]

For more information visit Toronto's IBMRing17.com (details coming soon) or the Montreal Magic Jam website about the Montreal lecture and workshop.

 

From the Montreal Magic Jam Facebook event "Rick Holcombe on Coin Magic":

Tickets are now on sale for our first lecture of the 2025-2026 season with coin-man extraordinaire Rick Holcombe. On Nov 20, Rick will be giving his Fusion Lecture and sneaking in a few bonuses along the way.

On Friday Nov. 21, Rick will also be giving small coin workshop where he'll teach a variety of hand-picked routines, techniques and sequences that require just three coins and will give an in-depth teaching session on his Sly Palm, a practical new tool that you will happy to be add to your repertoire. Email us if you're interested as spaces are limited.

I first heard of Rick Holcombe through my dearly departed friend Curtis Kam. On a Zoom session during lockdown, Curtis said there was a guy that was doing some very interesting stuff, AND the material was easy. For those that knew Curtis, I'm still not sure if that last comment was a compliment or him throwing shade. 🙂

So we watched some video, and Rick impressed me with how smooth and soft his work was. The Mr. Rogers of coin magic, his disarming nature only adds to the power of his magic. I've never met Rick in person but I'm excited to have him in Montreal for his first ever mini-Canadian lecture tour (he's just doing two dates: Toronto and here).

If you're a fan of coin magic, or are a little scared of it but want to add a little bit of it to your repertoire, Rick's your guy. His magic is strong and accessible (i.e. NOT knuckle-busting). So I hope to see most of you at the lecture, and at least a few of you at the workshop.

Montreal: Là où l’impossible prend vie (Where the Impossible Comes to Life) [Aug 27 - 31]

Tickets at Place des Arts. 

 

From the July 8th article "For his fourth show, illusionist Luc Langevin has pulled out all the stops: Where the Impossible Comes to Life is the culmination of 15 years of work, he tells us. A show of 'international caliber' that will tour Europe early next year. La Presse met him in his rehearsal space." by Jean Siag at La Press (translation from French by Google): 

"The challenge is to create a connection with the audience," he tells us. Hence the importance, according to him, of involving spectators, who are sometimes invited to come on stage, sometimes to participate in a performance from their seats. But they must be completely fooled for the magic to happen.

"For a good illusion to come to life, it's a choreography between the lighting, the music, the technicians, the staging, the video projection, and the magician. That's what makes it complex and requires rehearsal," explains Luc Langevin. "It's a lot of work and training."
