The trick in a nutshell
Using your magical abilities, you’ll make a long stick placed in a box split into three parts in the blink of an eye. After a moment, perform another magical move and join the sticks back together, leaving your audience truly amazed.
Performance
- Show the audience a long stick and an empty box to convince them that everything is in order.
- Place the stick into the box, holding it upright – with the opening facing upwards.
- Holding the bottom of the box with your left hand, slide its middle section to the side with your right hand – the stick will ‘break apart’ into three shorter pieces.
- Pull out the three short sticks and show them to the audience – everyone will see that the long stick has disappeared.
- Put the three sticks back into the box.
- With your right hand, slide the central section so that the box returns to its original position.
- Take one long stick out of the box again and show it to the audience.
