Approaching Tables
 
Hello, I recently was booked to do a bat-mitzfah party, and to go round the tables doing magic for 2 hours. I am being payed £100.00 which for me as a 12 year old is good. I have done party's before which have been successful but I have never done tables. I wouldn't know what the right way to approach the table would be, so please help me! How do I approach a table??

This may not be needed anymore, but anyway... i'll still write it.

Table hoping is the most difficult kind of magic, because basically, people don't want to see you perform, so if you go to the table, and ask if you can do a magic trick, they will probably say no (just probably). The key is to don't give them the oportunity to say no, just go to the table and entable a conversation with the spectator you think is the nicest (i generally start asking a question and then go into any magic topic, one of my favorites is to ask if they're magicians, then i produce a sponge ball from someone's ear and i ask if they're sure, then i start); after you're in, the next is the sequence, you need quick and strong tricks first, so they will wanna see more, after a few tricks like that, you can do something REALLY strong and kinda slow to the end; the next you'll learn it with experience, i hope this helped.
