The Carny Billet Box – The Midnight Carnival Edition by Chris Mallon and Strange Stage

As night descended upon the carnival, a change in décor accompanied the arrival of the midnight crowd. The performance, though familiar, took on a darker tone.

Questions were asked and answered until the mind reader declared ‘just one more!’. A member of the audience, upon reading the question from the box, appeared uneasy—it pertained to the dead. The mind reader paused, he had been warned, never do a spook show! But this wasn’t a spook show, he reassured himself, not really.

One question wouldn’t hurt, not when someone in the audience so desperately needed answers about the deceased. He decided to answer it, he trusted he knew when to stop, after all.

The Carny Box – Carnival of Shadows edition evokes the darker side of 1930’s carnivals and represents the conflicts of mixing mentalism and mediumship. It measures the same size as the original at 20x20cm. The modular switch features have also been improved. The main compartment can comfortably hold over 500 billets and the second switch feature is ready to ring in that question about the dead to end your act. Of course, this could be anything you like!

You will receive all media that came with the original, which includes;

Access to a video from Peter Turner who will talk you through a host of routines and ideas, some updated and improved ideas from the Jinx as well as ideas created specifically for owners of the carny billet box. The video is nearly 30 minutes long and is a true masterclass in creative thinking!

You will also receive videos showing alternative handlings and routine ideas by the genius that is Michael Murray from MindFX.co.uk. As well as this, he will also teach an amazing billet switch from his book ‘A Piece Of My Mind’ which is something I’m sure you’ll put into your act!

As well as this you will also receive yet another bonus video from FREAK, creator of F.A.S.T who will talk about the history of the traveling carnival and how the box will have been used during the era. Amazing insight from a phenomenal street performer!
