Erik Tait is an international champion of comedy and magic who has appeared on Penn & Teller: Fool Us!, NPR's Wait Wait Don't Tell Me and been featured in The New York Times. His blend of dry surreal comedy and cutting-edge sleight of hand has earned him awards from The International Brotherhood of Magicians and FISM, the World Championships of Magic.When he is not performing at the premier magic venues in North America or appearing as On-Camera talent for the world's largest magic retailer, Penguin Magic, he saddles up a glass chariot pulled by a pair of hot sauce-powered chihuahuas to defend this realm from that of the undead. Experts agree he is the only thing standing between this world and the forces of chaos.
In his lecture, Tait shares with you some of the secrets that he used to become the first American in 20 years to win a prize in Card Magic at FISM. You'll become privy to his philosophies and methods of false shuffles that will level up your magic. He will also be teaching a variety of tricks that range from almost self-working to disastrously difficult. Whether you are brand new to magic or a seasoned veteran, there is something for everyone in this action-packed lecture.
