Those of you who
have seen me do my stand up act at a corporate function over the last two years
would have probably seen me do a magical effect where I borrow a spectator’s
$50 or sometimes a $100 note if there is a willing donor, I then have them sign
their name on it and make it vanish by magic to the audiences amazement and
confusion. Later in the show I cut open a Lemon and find their signed money
inside! It is a very baffling effect and the situation of pretending to lose a
spectator’s note lends itself to a lot of comedy!
Last night I did
the effect at a function. I got to the end of the act and the spectators note
was found in the Lemon! At this point a voice from the audience calls out “that’s
not the first time he has made money from a lemon!” This got an enormous laugh!
After the performance it was explained to me that the gentleman who owned the $50
was a car salesman! Once I knew that I understood the humour of the situation
and the remark!
