Script for a Magic Show

Hey everyone!

I'd like to share the concept I built my show's script around, which I've been performing since the beginning of the year... Just in case it helps anyone or they can improve upon it. Haha!

The audience really connects with this concept (from what I can tell) because it doesn't fully develop until the very end. It's one of those ideas that really touches people's hearts and gets them emotional 😂😂😂

Developing my show took a lot of work, and I'm sharing it in case it helps you all. 😊👍

My show is called: "The Magic of the Impossible"

I start with a rope routine set to music.

After that, I link it to the idea that only magic can truly perform miracles like the one they just witnessed... I then begin asking the audience what *they* understand "MAGIC" to be...

They start giving me definitions, and I conclude that *my* definition is: "Magic is like a dream that allows us to make the impossible, possible."

I keep performing effects, each with its own little introduction, but all of them highlighting their impossibility (I perform mentalism effects and say things like: "Your eyes have already seen that it was possible; don't think about it too much because there's no explanation."...

I conclude with an effect that I find incredibly impactful and impossible, and in my final patter, I link it to the following: "Tonight you've witnessed a series of seemingly impossible miracles come true just inches from you. This wasn't a dream, but true Magic, and it's only achieved through Hard Work, Effort, and Perseverance... That's why you should never let anyone tell you your dreams are impossible, because the only thing you need to make them a reality is Hard Work, Effort, and a lot of Perseverance to never give up. That way, no dream will ever be impossible. Fight for your dreams, make them happen!!"

And with that, I conclude and close out the show. Haha!

I've briefly outlined the highlights, the core idea that everything revolves around...

A few weeks ago, I was asked to perform an effect for an educational awards ceremony, and I was surprised at how easily I could adapt this same idea (the moral) into a script related to education. I only changed a few small things, but kept that same underlying message: everyone must fight for their dreams and never let anyone tell them they're impossible, understanding that every dream requires sacrifice and you have to work for it...

This idea can be adapted to any theme and would allow for real-life examples, even telling stories of real people. Who would have dreamed of iron machines flying through the air, or that we would land on the Moon, or that we would have super-intelligent machines that would make everything easier? These are all examples of things that were considered impossible not long ago. Haha!
