Axel Hecklau's EVOLUTION Lecture

Recently, Tannen's had the distinct pleasure of having one of Germany's finest magicians, Axel Hecklau, on hand to give a dynamite lecture.

Axel taught some genuine gems from his repertoire, and had an absolute blast with our intrigued audience! He's a terrific thinker, and his work in the art of magic is most certainly worth a look!

Check him out at AxelHecklau.com!

Some highlights:

Axel shares his remarkable Spoonaround routine.

Guests were treated to Axel's handling and thoughts on the classic Rope Thru Neck illusion.

A clever and ungimmicked approach to a popular card tossing routine was a major hit!

We hope all attendees had a great time learning from Axel, and our deepest thanks to Axel Hecklau himself for joining us and sharing his favorite effects!

Help the World Learn About Mario the Magician

Long time friend of Tannen's Magic, Mario the Magician, has been entertaining children in New York City for years, and he's built some truly beautiful and unique magic items for the magic community that are works of art all on their own.

Mario's story is one the world deserves to know about, and documentary filmmaker Kal is eager to tell it! This is your chance to become a part of bringing Mario's story to life, via the crowdfunding giant, Kickstarter!

As of this writing, there are 20 days left to back the project, which include some really fun perks and rewards at a variety of contribution levels.

Click the photo above or this LINK to be taken to the Kickstarter page to learn more about the project and contribute.

We wish all the best of luck to Kal and Katie in bringing Mario's story to the masses!!!

David Roth, Brilliant as Usual!

Recently, Tannen's Magic Shop had the honor of hosting the incredible David Roth for a packed-house lecture! This lecture also marked the first time we've explored using a camera and monitor to get a little closer in on the action, a work-in-progress!

We hope all attendees had an incredible time, and we look very forward to the next one!

Below are a few photo highlights from the evening with David Roth:
