The Magic Apple is proud to present the 8th annual A Day of Lectures, back at the beautiful Sportsman's Lodge in Studio City, CA!
NOVEMBER 8TH 2015
This year's A Day of Lecture is one of the most diverse ones we have ever produced! Three COMPLETELY different styles of magic and teaching! All 4 of the guests have perfected their own style of magic and you will learn magic and routines no matter who you perform for! If you are a full time pro and are looking for new routines, if you simply perform for friends and families, or just kids or are a fan of flourishes and unique card magic this is the event for you!

Dear Magic Friends,
All of us here at Browser's Den would like to personally invite you to attend our 40th store anniversary party.
Many of you have been customers of ours since the beginning back in 1975. We could not have done it without all of our dedicated customers both old and new. And in appreciation of this special relationship we have a full day of fun events planned for you.
This is also the day that we remember our founders Len and Bernice Cooper.
Jeff Pinsky purchased Browser's Den from Len and Bernice in 1995. Len passed away in 2003. And since then at each anniversary party we hand out in Len's memory a full set of eight Tarbell Course in Magic books to someone under 26 years of age who has shown a dedication to the art of magic.
We are so pleased that Bernice Cooper will be at the party to witness this year's worthy recipient.
PLUS- In appreciation of your devotion to our shop this is the only day of the year where EVERYTHING in the shop is on sale all day long!
As children, many of us fall in love with magic — but growing up often means giving up on the illusion.
Not so for Darcy Oake, who quietly trained for years before getting his big break on Britain's Got Talent. After wowing the talent show audience, Oake's life changed in a matter of days, and hasn't stopped since.
Today he joins Shad to discuss the dimly-understood craft of magic as well as his new book, Beyond the Illusion. He also opens up about how his brother's death affected him as both an artist and a person.

He bills himself as a “practitioner of the art of astonishment” and currently hosts the one-man theatrical show Séance
at Theatre Passe Muraille, but the trick-player Nicholas Wallace is
under no illusion that ghosts actually exist. We spoke to the
spirit-summoning skeptic about supernatural scares small, large and
definitely medium.
I went to a preview performance of Séance, and I must say I left the theatre a little confused. Was I supposed to be scared? Amused?
