Dancing Cane Trick

The Magician makes his cane dance magically all around him! Can be done close up, and the Cane can be passed out afterwards to spectators...


#25 The Dancing Cane Illusion
Uses these magic proceedures: Misdirection, Special Props

The Cane is specially made, usually from aluminum, and has a fine thin Magician's Thread (invisible beyond a few inches away) attached from the top tip to a point somewhere down along near the bottom, and the thread extends out away from the Cane about 8-12 inches at the middle, so that a loop exists enabling a finger, hand or other means to hook it... and using the natural balance of the Cane suspended in this way, The Magician makes movements in all possible ways with his arms and hands causing the Cane to swing and sway around effortlessly while "rebounding" so to speak ...

Music, lights, background scenery and the actions of the performer add to the misdirection away from the hidden aspect of this piece of Magic...
