From the Montreal Magic Jam newsletter:
What: Conférence Michel Huot
When: Lundi le 29 novembre, 19h00 (7pm)
Where: 6546 Rue St-Hubert, Montréal, QC H2S 2M3The cold weather has finally arrived in Montreal, but it's not all bad news. On top of having a couple special online events schedules in the near future, for the first time, in a very long time we'll be having an in-person event, a lecture from hometown favorite Michel Huot. En plus, la conférence sera en français.
Michel is a remarkable performer in English, but even better in his native French, so we figured it would be a great opportunity to see him at his finest.
For those of you who are less adept at the language, Michel will be happy to translate to English as needed throughout the lecture.
With over 25 years of performing under his belt, Michel knows a thing or two about the craft. The man behind best-selling tricks like Priceless, and Socks will be sharing his creations with us, as well as the real secrets of professional magic. I think you'll really want to pay attention to what he has to say.
Of course, we'll have to do a vaccination check and follow Quebec health guidelines so spots will be limited. So please don't wait to register, especially since you can save 10 bucks while you're at it.

Dear Denizens,
We are so excited to start off the 2019 year with a lecture by Michel Huot.
It is not often that we have a lecturer who earns almost all of his living as a corporate magician. Michel Huot is just that magician. He has been a corporate magician for 24 years. Over the past 24 years he has given more then 4,000 performances!
Years and years of performing magic in the real world have fine tuned his performances to make sure that he gets repeat business...repeat business...from businesses.
He is also a top notch creator of magic including 'Priceless', 'Dirty Pool' and the soon to be released 'Socks'. Many of his routines have also appeared in the magazines 'Genii', 'Magic', 'The Magic Menu'. Some of his creations have also appeared in the books of David Acer, John Lovick.
He has performed and lectured in Algeria, Mexico, Canada, France, Magic Circle in London, Penguin Magic.
In his lecture you will learn cool tricks with your shoe, your cellphone, plush toys, socks, cards, jacket and more. Everything Michel teaches you is magic and methods for the real world; magic, that can be done in non ideal surroundings.

As I wrote on the Perfect Magic Facebook, too bad for you if you didn’t go to the Comedy Nest in Montreal last Sunday night. For us, Phil and I, it was like old home week and brought back warm and pleasant memories of Magie Montréal. We had tried to phone Mephisto, aka Wym Vermeys, who was our partner in that venture but couldn’t reach him. He called the day after the show and said he was in Florida. He was heartbroken that he missed it.
David was terrific as the MC. He did many funny bits, which I know all who were there will use, magicians or not! He didn’t do any magic but some good comic mind reading stuff.

MONTREAL — In keeping with the spirit of Sochi, David Acer, ace close-up magician/standup comic, is demonstrating his Olympic card trick. It entails no skates or snowboards or moguls. It does entail, however, mittens as well as a deck of cards.
“It’s a sleight-of-mitten trick,” says Acer, co-owner of the Comedy Nest, where this demonstration is taking place. “Just to make sure I can’t do any digital trickery.” Phew. No worries about impromptu prostate exams, let alone much card trickery — not with those clunky mitts
