Centennial Salute to Magic

19-05-2009

he S.A.M. PA # 1 – Centennial Salute to Magic is now history!

It was an ambitious effort with many firsts. Many acts, lots of complex technical coordination for videos, lights and sounds. It was a long show (3.5 hours) but considering all that was needed to pull this off and the fact that it is a one nighter, it was a job well done. Congrats to all who were involved!

Highlights included:

  • Congratulatory videos from Penn & Teller & Lance Burton
  • Live congratulatory video feed from David Copperfield
  • Johnny Thompson’s two performances in one night (Cups & Balls and The Great Tomsoni & Co.)
  • Margaret Steele
  • Mike Caveney
  • Paul Daniels
  • David Ben
  • Films of Cardini & Al Flosso

 
Also the show program is beautiful. It will certainly become a collector’s item.
It was a 14 hour day for me but well worth all of the work I put into it. Overall I had a blast!
