Praise for Tear Down

May 20th, 2008

“I’ve been performing a newspaper tear for years. It used to be my stand-up opener but is only brought out on occasions when I need it. The tear, based on a popular method, has served me well, but I may well be tossing it to employ Andrew Mayne’s excellent ‘Tear Down.’”

Focal Point

May 14th, 2008


You introduce several antique photographs collected from around the world. A spectator is invited to freely select one to focus upon. After a moment of concentration you begin to zero in on the spectator’s thoughts and reveal the selected photograph with a drawing. However, in a strange climax, you leave the spectator wondering if they imagined it all when the chosen photograph is turned over to reveal a completely blurred image!
