Mission: Sean Taylor lecture [May 19]

From the Sean Taylor FVMC Lecture Facebook event:

Sean Taylor is a magician who needs no introduction. 

He has authored 5 books for magicians, released a dozen DVDs and more than 25 effects. He’s also lectured in 7 countries and performed in 16. 

Sean’s effects are practical and commercial and used by working professionals all over the world and these are his first LIVE lectures in over 3 years. 

Lockdown has been a busy time in the Taylor house with Sean ZOOM lecturing for the Magic Circle in London, the IBM British Ring in the UK as well as other magic clubs in the USA, UK and Australia. In addition, Sean and his son Patrick have re-designed and re-shot all of his signature effects and released a bunch of new items. 

Looking Forward to the Past is a new lecture of close-up, stand-up and mentalism which spans Sean’s many interests in magic. There are some easy craft projects, some quirky
uses for things you already know and some new work on old favourites. Subtlety over sleights and effect over method.

There will be something for everyone and every performing situation! 

Sean will be bringing his unique range of products for sale after the lecture (including a new release which will be seen at these new lectures for the first time) and there will be comprehensive lecture notes with video clips available on a thumb drive.
