Volume III – Dobson’s Choice
“My friend Wayne Dobson has (once again) done the unthinkable. He has released all of his material. Yes, all—even that one. To say that the resulting three volume set is beautiful is a distinct understatement. For me this is not just beautiful, it’s inspirational. I hope that someday I can come close to doing what Wayne has done. Except the MS part.”Mac King
This incredible book co-written with Bob Gill is bursting with professional-quality magic and routines. Practical material that has been perfected in front of real-world audiences.
Many of Wayne Dobson’s most commercial effects can be found within these pages, like “3Sixty” and “Lucky Dip”. Those familiar with Wayne’s work might recognize the latter as the trick that fooled Derren Brown (who wrote the foreword for Volume III). To this day, Derren still performs “Lucky Dip” as one of his go-to effects for casual situations.
Parlor and stage performers will love “Total Recall”—an entertaining and stunning approach to the Magic Square. His “Shopping List” routine is also a masterclass on how to get the most magical and comedic value out of a 10-minute routine.
As if all this wasn’t enough, Wayne also peels back the curtain on how to build some of his most iconic props. Many of the things he teaches you how to build have either completely unavailable, or difficult to purchase, for years.
