Also included are subject files, publications, and magic trick descriptions. Call Number: Performing Arts Collection PA-00054 Language: English Access: Open for research. One box contains clippings and excerpts from newspapers that are too fragile to handle and therefore is restricted. Researchers must create an online Research Account and agree to the Materials Use Policy before using archival materials. Documents containing personal information are restricted due to privacy concerns during the lifetime of individuals mentioned in the documents; in many instances, these documents have been replaced with redacted photocopies. Use Policies: Ransom Center collections may contain material with sensitive or confidential information that is protected under federal or state right to privacy laws and regulations. Researchers are advised that the disclosure of certain information pertaining to identifiable living individuals represented in the collections without the consent of those individuals may have legal ramifications (e.g., a cause of action under common law for invasion of privacy may arise if facts concerning an individual's private life are published that would be deemed highly offensive to a reasonable person) for which the Ransom Center and The University of Texas at Austin assume no responsibility. Restrictions on Authorization for publication is given on behalf of the University of Performing Arts Collection PA-00054 Restrictions on Authorization for publication is given on behalf of the University of Use: Texas as the owner of the collection and is not intended to include or imply permission of the copyright holder which must be obtained by the researcher. For more information please see the Ransom Centers' Open Access and Use Policies. Administrative Information Provenance The collection was originally created by Ransom Center staff using materials largely from the Messmore Kendall Collection, as well as the Albert Davis, Robert Downing, McManus-Young, George Schulte, and Anthony Wells collections, and the Harry Houdini Papers. The Ransom Center acquired the Houdini Papers in 1958 and because of the volume and breadth of Houdini's collected material, the Center's staff created artificial collections based on subject or format. Consequently, items and documents were removed from the Houdini Papers and formed the bulk of the Center's Magic Collection, Playbills Collection, Theater Biography Collection, Circus Collection, Scrapbook Collection, and Theater Arts Manuscripts Collection, among others. While processing the Houdini Papers in 2018, the attempt was made to return material owned by Houdini from the Magic Collection to the Houdini Papers. Items were removed from the Magic Collection and placed back with the Houdini papers based on the presence of Houdini's signature or writing, inscriptions to Houdini, the initials of Robert Evans, the initials of Houdini's librarian Alfred Becks, and the signature or initials of Henry Evans Evanion. Despite lacking signs of ownership, it is highly likely that the bulk of the remaining Magic Collection was originally part of the Houdini Papers. Preferred Harry Ransom Center, The University of Texas at Austin. Magic Citation Collection (Performing Arts Collection PA-00054). Processing Note The collection is minimally processed; specific dates, series descriptions, and indexes are not included in this inventory. This collection was previously called the Magicians Collection, but when the magic trick descriptions were added in 2018, the name was changed to reflect the broader content. Processed by: Jennifer Hecker and Erin Lawrimore, 2002; Amy E. Armstrong, 2018 Repository: Harry Ransom Center, The University of Texas at Austin, 2 Performing Arts Collection PA-00054 Scope and Contents The Magic Collection, 1787-2005, undated, contains clippings, correspondence, handbills, photographs, playbills, posters, printed material, and other items related to magicians and entertainers who performed tricks and illusions, including ventriloquism, sleight-of-hand, mind-reading, levitation, and other acts. Also included are subject files, publications, and magic trick descriptions. It is divided into five series: I. Magicians and Performers, II. Organizations, III. Subjects, IV. Publications, and V. Magic Tricks and Illusions. Series I. Magicians and Performers contains clippings, correspondence, handbills, photographs, playbills, posters, printed material, and other items related to magicians and entertainers who performed tricks and illusions, including ventriloquism, sleight-of-hand, mind-reading, levitation, and other acts. This series is arranged alphabetically by the name most often used; which may be either a given name or a stage name. Because magicians often use both, researchers should look in the container list under all names used by a performer. Series II. Organizations includes brochures, catalogs, clippings, correspondence, photographs, printed material, and programs regarding magic associations and clubs, magic manufacturers and suppliers, magic publishers, and other businesses associated with magic and performance. Series III. Subjects includes catalogs, clippings, ephemera, a matchbook, photographs, and printed material associated with magic, performance venues, spiritualism and the occult, tricks and illusions, and related topics. Series IV. Publications contains article excerpts, magazines, newspapers, and similar material related to magic, performance venues, spiritualism and the occult, tricks and illusions, and related topics. It is arranged alphabetically either by title or author. Series V. Magic Tricks and Illusions includes descriptions of magic tricks and illusions from various printed sources including from catalogs, magazines, mail order sources, newsletters, newspapers, and other magic vendors. This series was previously arranged alphabetically by the name of magician who invented the trick or who made it famous, by the publisher, or the magic vendor. The origin of this arrangement is unclear, so it was maintained during processing. The Houdini Papers (some of his collected material is undoubtedly included within the Magic Collection) were housed in the University of Texas Main Building tower when it caught on fire on August 10, 1965. Some items were indirectly affected by the heat, smoke, and water used to distinguish the fire. As a result, a small portion of this material has water damage. The ink on letters is smeared and has migrated to other pages making some letters difficult to read. Other items, such as photographs were ruined or have adhered to other photographs or papers. Because of this associated damage, some photographs and other documents are restricted from use, but they are still listed in the container list. 3 Performing Arts Collection PA-00054 Related Material For additional materials related to magic and spiritualism at the Ransom Center, see the Harry Houdini Papers, the Harry Houdini Collection, the Carl L.

  • Grand Masters of Illusion
    GRAND MASTERS OF ILLUSION Written and Directed by Ted & Marion Outerbridge Choreography Pattie Obey, Don Jordan Lighting Design Brad Trenaman Sound Design Ethan Rising Costume Design Peter de Castell, Marion Outerbridge Illusion Design Illusions Unlimited Artistic Consultant Lorna Wayne Haze Effects MDG Poster Design Melinda Tymm Photography Dermot Cleary Publicist Stuart McAllister Management Cameron Smillie, Live at the Hippo Pool Events PRESS KIT 2012 - 2013 SHOW OVERVIEW CLOCKWORK MYSTERIES Written and Directed by Ted and Marion Outerbridge A professionally orchestrated theatrical production with over twenty custom-designed illusions and world-class lighting and set design, OUTERBRIDGE – Clockwork Mysteries is a high-energy magical adventure for both adult and family audiences. Recognized as one of the most creative and dynamic shows of its kind, critics have hailed Ted and Marion Outerbridge as “the most successful magicians in Canada” (Montreal Gazette) and “champions of magic” (Bergedorfer Zeitung, Hamburg, Germany). As the largest and most successful touring illusion show in the country, it has received both the 2011 Award of Excellence from Ontario Contact and the 2010 Touring Artist of the Year award from the B.C. Touring Council. OUTERBRIDGE – Clockwork Mysteries takes its audience on a bizarre and fascinating journey through time. Within seconds of taking the stage, the Outerbridges fuse their revolutionary illusions with split-second artistry to hold viewers spellbound. With the help of an elaborate Victorian time machine, the performers and spectators travel back in time together. The audience is invited into a mysterious clock tower equipped with a variety of timekeeping devices. They become part of a race against time, experience time accelerating and slowing down, and participate in predicting the contents of a time capsule.

  • Mentalism Mastery
    Mentalism Mastery To be proficient in the area of mentalism one must demonstrate the illusion of extraordinary cognitive, sensory or mental abilities. These must be demonstrated in an entertaining manner and work together thematically as an “act.” The performer may use any real-world performable means at his disposal. His methods may consist of pre-show work, sleight of hand techniques, electronics, as well as gimmicks to achieve his goal. If the performer is performing a one-person act, any stooges must be of the impromptu variety; i.e. unknowing audience stooges. This is not to imply that two-performer acts are discouraged, only that the use of secret confederates is not permitted. The mentalist must take a minimal approach to props. Any props used should be as innocent looking as possible. Audience members should be allowed to hold and examine as many of the props as possible. Since the mentalist is supposed to be a mind reader, his props should not lend themselves to suspicion and they should stand up to reasonable scrutiny. Of course, the mentalism must be strong enough to fool an intelligent layman. However, not only must the effect be strong, but it should be properly paced and sufficiently interesting to command attention. A good trick, presented in a drawn out and boring manner, will not be considered mastery. By the same token, an entertaining premise that fails to deliver a convincing demonstration of mental powers will not indicate mastery of the subject. While skilled sleight of hand is not necessarily required to earn the mental mastery award, there are skills that will be judged.

Adrian Smith, then current Dean of the Society of American Magicians. At the time, Harold as he was known to his friends, had the largest magic library in the world. Often Harold was a dinner guest at our house and as usual after our meal “the boys” would discuss magic and collecting. Harold’s plan for his books and ephemera was to donate it all to his alma mater, Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. As we all know that’s what happened to his collection. Ed on the other hand disagreed with Harold’s plan and said that when the time came for him to dissolve his library he wanted everything to be sold; so that other collectors could enjoy what he had amassed.
