Club 8, Cabaret i{enta}isr:. Page J,

Clublend is booning! Alirost evcry clistrict and organi-sation

in England hEs its own club. These are places of entertainnent

for the working nan, where he can go for a drinire a gane of -13i-ngot

anrl to watch a Cabaret Slrow.

usually these shorus consist of singers, 8roups and thc occa.i

-sional coileclian. i'iagic acts, for thc nost part, arc not very

popular. liany noterl nagicians have tried to dcfinc the rea6on

for this. Thcy usually coi,le up with the ansiller riA r'tagic act

neecls the audience to concentrate, and club audienees cannot

concentrate.?r This is far fron thc truth. Any lii-nd of act

nced.s tl:re audiences attention. l{o coniedian can hopc to get hisjokes across if the audience foils tc concentrate on vrhat he is

saylng, and a great frrny coiledians have bcen highfy succeseful intire club field!

If this is true of thc cor,redian, it nust be equally true

of other kinds cf entertainilent, including liagicians'

The real truth is that .l,lagic and Conjuring are considered

OtD FASHI0NED AhtD CHILDISH by the average Club 1',cribcr. Adnittedly

a few l,iagic Acts IUrVB nad; the gradc J-n Clublanclt but these can

be counted on the fingers of onc hand.

.,Jith thc coning of 'Iclevision irlany l,iegicol Entertaincrs have

bcen concentrati-ng on Vi-sual lrragic. Proclucing c.l,oves fron aI1

iriinner of unlikely place's, tricks r+itli silks, slieght of hand

r^lith c.rrcls, carcl fanr:ing ancl the like. This is ideal cntcrtain

-nont for television audiences, but it nevcr recrlllr got off thc

ground in Clublancl.

A fev,r acts began to succecd with the idea of building a.n actwith sroalI portable illusions. t3ut by this tinc it was too 1a.te

Considcr this.,..In the collrse of tr,yclve nonths the avcragea.gcnt is approached by dczens of nagical acts (anii so calledcor,tedy r:iagicians - but he has been tcaughtr that way before),all seeking work. lle has tried siniliar acts in thc past butti:cy didntt ?'CLICFTT with hj-s clients, so for hin i'lagic actsarc a BAD RISK.

Hor^rever, his bookcrs are constantly asliing hin for new facesand sonething diffcrent,

ticcausc of thc lack of good i:tental attractions he has possiblyncver bcen ai:proachcC by onc fcr years. ,ihen he is approachcdby a Irientalist viho docs a clccent job of selling his act, he islikely to try it, sinply out of curi-osj.ty.
