278: The Inner Secrets of the Outerbridges

Have you ever wondered what it's like to travel on the road with a large, stage illusion show across snow and ice? And what do you do when a herd of bison blocks your path? In this podcast we go behind the scenes, around the props,on the road and into the performers, the Outerbridges.

Ted and Marion Outerbridge are Canada's premiere theatrical touring magicians. Recognized as one of the greatest magic acts in Canada, the Outerbridges won the 2011 Award of Excellence from Ontario Contact, an organization of theatre presenters. In 2010, they won Touring Artist of the Year in British Columbia’s equivalent BC Touring Council. I first met them when I emceed their show at the 2013 Abbott's Get Together in Colon, Michigan where they were the feature illusion act. They later closed the I.B.M. convention in Jacksonville, Florida in 2015 and just completed a lecture tour of the U.S.

A professionally orchestrated theatrical production with over 20 custom-designed illusions and world-class lighting and set design, OUTERBRIDGE -- Clockwork Mysteries is a high-energy magical adventure for both adult and family audiences. Recognized as one of the most creative and dynamic shows of its kind, critics have hailed Ted and Marion Outerbridge as "the most successful magicians in Canada" and "champions of magic."

Ted and Marion sat down at midnight to enjoy acouple martinis and a chat about how they first met and their paths that followed. The myriad stories they shared revolve around working at performing arts centers, what it's like being on the road, how they book shows, and lots of stories and advice. For example, if you want to select volunteers from the audience by using a beach ball, then fill the ball with helium to keep it floating more.

244: Two Daves - Dave Cox & David Kaplan

Two Daves that need shaves. Dave Cox and David Kaplan, both successful creative comedy magicians in their own right. Both were part of the talent line-up at this year's incredibly great I.B.M. convention in Jacksonville, Florida. Both performed and gave wonderful lectures (which I would recommend to other convention organizers). David Kaplan basically followed me from Italy to Florida, from FISM to the I.B.M. convention where he also performed and lectured. And I recently saw Dave Cox perform at the Magic Castle along with Bruce Gold in the Peller Theater as the "Evil Twins" (a wonderful act, BTW).

I caught up with Dave Cox after his lecture to sit down for a chat but before we turned on the recorder, David Kaplan wandered up to see if we wanted to go to lunch. I suggested we talk first, then eat. David acquiesced and joined the conversation which will last longer than the digested food. So, it is to your benefit that we get to hear some advice, stories and chuckles from a couple of the "under-sung" comedians in our industry today.
