“Choices are the hinges of destiny.” – Edwin Markham

Decisions in life often come with regrets, a reflection of our innate desire for the perfect outcome. This longing mirrors the hope of winning big with every lottery ticket.

Magic embodies this very essence. Introducing the Choice Box—no matter which number a participant selects, a delightful surprise awaits. All outcomes are cleverly predetermined, leading to expressions of wonder as the audience realizes the trick.

Effect

The magician showcases a beautifully crafted wooden box, inviting an audience member to join in a playful game of chance. They randomly choose a number, hoping for a grand prize.

As the moment of revelation approaches, the magician reveals four numbers, each linked to a unique compartment. One by one, the rewards for the other numbers are unveiled, each more astonishing than the last.

When the chosen number is revealed, the outcome takes an unexpected twist: the participant wins… a Lollipop! This surprising conclusion leaves the audience in disbelief and laughter as the magician produces the lollipop, wrapping up the performance with joy and astonishment.

Designed by Didier Ledda, the Choice Box features a unique mechanism that ensures all four selections lead to the same outcome. Simply lift the box by its corners, and it will guide you to the desired result, regardless of the participant’s choice.

Crafted from North American black walnut wood, the Choice Box boasts a rich color, intricate grain, and exceptional durability. These attributes enhance its mystery and storytelling potential, elevating your performance.

The golden numbers are made from waterproof PVC decals, and each compartment resembles a finely carved showcase. The box’s edges are adorned with detailed patterns, adding to its sophistication.

Not only does it accommodate folded billets, but the compartments can also hold small objects, making it versatile for various performances.

The Choice Box artfully combines psychology and magic, weaving a narrative about fate and choice. Whether captivating an informal gathering or a formal event, this prop infuses your performance with enchanting energy. Tailor its contents to fit your magical story, ensuring success regardless of the participant’s selection.

As magician Jay Wang notes in the video, the participant will find themselves pondering their choice long after the show ends.
