Last week, my magic show did 12 shows at a fair in California. When I was packing to go there, I took a picture of all the consumable stuff in my magic show. This is stuff that isn’t reusable and I have to replace each show or every few shows:
Here’s what’s in that picture:
- Pad of paper
- Dollar bills
- decks of cards
- Gift bags
- wet naps
- confetti
- garbage bags
- paper plates
- throw coils
- produce bags
- evidence bags
It feels like a lot of stuff, and it kinda is when you’re seeing 12 shows worth of stuff, plus a couple of back ups. For a single show, it’s not a lot. The nice thing about having stuff that gets used up in the show is that my case going home is a little bit lighter!
