Staging Your Program
By Harlan Tarbell
Of great importance in staging a Magical performance is having every piece of apparatus in its place and in the same place, as nearly as possible, for each performance. This system eliminates groping around for paraphernalia. You know just where to locate each article almost without thinking. Each effect should be grouped by itself if possible. The partitioning of your suitcase helps this. It gives you a definite place from which to take paraphernalia for an effect so that you can work with snap—and it gives you a definite place for clearing away your effect without delay when you have finished.

You have enough to think about in presenting a performance without having your mind loaded with unnecessary details, such as finding your apparatus. You must keep all your attention concentrated on SHOWMANSHIP and not scatter it around on many unimportant details.

ARRANGEMENT OF STAGE SETTING

Dress the stage the best you can with the material you have. Study color effects a little and style of arrangement. Keep the stage neat-looking. Keep material not in use at the moment as far in the background as possible. Things in use should be made to stand out. Because of spectators coming up to assist you, be sure that apparatus on stage is well protected against close observation. A handkerchief or cloth will help to conceal things. Keeping things far back also helps to conceal them. Sometimes one or two effects can be kept off stage until ready for use. Allow plenty of space at front of stage for spectators assisting you.

When two acts are being given, the material for the first act should be cleared away and new material set in place for the second act. This gives a new note of interest for the second act.
