“Just the right amount of hands-on spectator activity and a visual finish that is smart, playful, and surprising.” – Michael Weber
“Switch Doctor exemplifies one of my favorite mentalism plots, and it’s now among my top versions. Before any actions unfold, the participant is already filled with joyful anticipation. This captivating start is rivaled only by the conclusion. Max’s insights into the trick’s history are as remarkable as the effect itself.” – Jared Kopf
“This is my kind of magic! The principle has intrigued me for years – until today! I appreciate the construction of this routine, where all items are borrowed or provided by the participant. You can choose to present it as a simple prediction effect or as a demonstration of influence. The final prediction is established from the start; the spectator sees it but won’t recognize it until revealed. This is a fantastic lesson that can be applied in various settings or routines.” – Jan Forster
In these unusual times, magicians and mentalists are adapting to new conditions. Performances are conducted remotely via Zoom, FaceTime, Skype, and other platforms. Creating wonder under these constraints can be challenging.
Fortunately, you have a guide who has navigated these unique landscapes for years. MAX MAVEN has been a pioneer of interactive magic for over four decades, crafting impactful routines that engage audiences in a virtual environment. Embark on your virtual journey with Switch Doctor.
Here’s what to expect:
A breathtaking long-distance surprise utilizing everyday items: three pieces of paper, a pen, a coin, and a key. A game unfolds with materials hidden from the performer. Objects are moved and switched, allowing enough freedom of choice to ensure the performer cannot predict their positions. Yet, the final item is not only revealed but also shown to have been secretly predicted from the beginning.
Switch Doctor is part of the Virtual Visions series, featuring six practical routines. No complex gimmicks are required. There’s no pre-show or private conversations with one spectator to deceive others. Nothing is sent in advance. These effects can be performed for an individual or a large virtual audience. As a special bonus, if you purchase all six routines together, you’ll receive a discounted price and an exclusive video where Max Maven shares the History of Virtual Magic. Some of this information will surprise you and provide valuable perspective. This talk is only available with the complete set.
