On this DVD, there are four examples of opening tricks described and explained in full detail, including:
HUMAN SEWING MACHINE
A streamlined and inexpensive version of Scott & Puck's The Needles -- strong enough to be used as a closer or anywhere in your show.
TOXIC ACAAN SQUARED
The Magic Square gets a reboot by infusing the classic ACANN plot TOXIC FORCE and a kicker ending that makes the audience jump to their feet.
STARS
A warm and enchanting closing effect combining Dan Harlan's Starcle and the classic Snowstorm, creating an ultraviolet and unforgettable audience experience. Scott closes with this one a lot because of its strong audience appeal.
HYDRO-TASTIC GLASS
A thoughtful version of the Hydrostatic glass you can make for pennies, combined with a wonderful premise based on the philosophy of Bruce Lee.
"This DVD collection is a handy compilation of the those concepts as well as a worker’s insights on the nuts and bolts of performing the selected routines. My personal tastes in humor and style are a bit different than Mr. Alexander’s, but I was still engaged in the performances and the teaching segments, and his character development segments inspired legitimate selfreflection. " -Joe M. Turner, Genii Magazine
"OVERALL if you want to perform on stage, or are a seasoned pro you will get A LOT of material and information from this series. Thank you Scott for sharing your material with us and I hope everybody makes the investment because it’s well worth it." -Paul Romhany, *Reviews Vanish Magazine
