Introducing a Magical Experience for Kids!
Inspired by the legendary David Copperfield and the classic Abbott’s Bathing Beauty effect, George Iglesias presents a delightful children’s version of “A Trip to Cancun.” Following the success of the adult edition, this seven-minute comedy routine is designed to captivate audiences of all ages!
EFFECT: The magician selects a child from the audience and presents six cards featuring circus animals. The child freely chooses one card, memorizes the animal, and shows it to everyone except the magician. After returning the card to the deck and shuffling, the magician declares he will make the chosen animal vanish and travel to a Magic Circus. With a wave of his hand, either the child or the magician reveals that the selected animal has completely disappeared!
The magician then introduces a large poster depicting a classic magician in a tuxedo, complete with a red bow tie, cummerbund, top hat, and magic wand. However, the card in the magician’s hand is merely a drawing, making it impossible to verify if the card truly traveled to the Magic Circus.
With a playful twist, the magician folds the poster and invites the child to reach inside. Instead of the card, the child pulls out the magician’s wand! Laughter ensues as the magician exclaims, “Oh no! You were supposed to take out the card, not the wand!” The poster is revealed to be missing the wand.
The magician tries again, but this time the child retrieves the magician’s top hat. “Oh no! You were supposed to take out the card, not the magician’s TOP HAT!” The audience erupts in laughter as they see a bunny perched atop the magician’s head, revealing his baldness.
In a humorous turn, the magician attempts to retrieve the card himself but accidentally pulls out a red cummerbund instead. The kids can’t contain their laughter, and when the magician finally asks the child to name the selected animal, he turns the card around to reveal it is indeed the chosen animal!
As the trick concludes, the children eagerly request to see inside the poster. When the magician opens it again, they discover his pants are down, revealing funny underwear and a bunny in front of the poster, leaving everyone in stitches!
