am extremely satisfied with SERENDIPITY and totally excited to bring it to the magic community. I have taken two classic plots the "audience created card" and the "open prediction box" and combined them in such a way that will leave your audience stunned and shaking their heads in disbelief.
Bruno Henning created the original impossible location box, but for me, it was John Kennedy's Mystery Box in 1997 that took the effect to a whole new level. Sure, there have been a million different variations on the card to box concept -- some clear boxes, some opaque boxes, and some even used metal tins. There have been many advancements by many creative magicians over the years, but there always seemed to be a trade-off in the method vs. the effect. Is the card forced, is there a switch, if so...how and when? It had to be as fair as possible and it absolutely had to work 100% of the time.
If you saw me lecture recently you were exposed to a prototype of the box used in Serendipity. While it was functional then, as I eluded to, the final product would be vastly different and infinitely better. I can honestly say I've succeeded. Having performed this effect for years as often as 3-4 times a week as my opening effect, I can honestly say this routine has "legs". Sure, it is fooling ... but possibly even more important is how this routine bridges the gap and establishes a connection with the audience. It is perfect for audiences of 50 or less but can easily be adapted to the largest stages with a little video support. It's fun to perform, interactive and impossible.
The effect is straight forward. Here is EXACTLY what happens:
A bag is introduced, said to contain a mystery, and placed in full view. After a bit of byplay and getting to know the audience, a card is generated by asking a series of questions to multiple spectators. There are no stooges or confederates. With each question, cards are eliminated from an imaginary deck of cards until there is only one. A card solely "created" by the decisions of the spectators who are free answer as they like and are even encouraged to change their minds. The first person decides between high or low cards. The second person determines if the card is black or red. The third person determines the value of the card and the final helper determines the suit of the card. By combining all the spectators information together we are left with just a single card.
With empty hands, a classy petite ring box is removed from the bag and the bag is placed away. The box is now given a few shakes and to the delight of the audience they hear a card bouncing around inside. The box is opened to show a folded up card and then closed again as the performer recaps the impossibility of the situation ... stressing the fairness of how the card was created by the audience members. It is also pointed out that any changed decision along the way would have modified the outcome to a completely different card. With empty hands, a single card is removed from the box and unfolded to reveal the exact card the spectators created a few moments ago. Truly SERENDIPITY!
**Point to note, the box is seen completely empty after the card is removed.
