Pickpocket Demonstration Video

Pickpocket Entertainer

Gene excels in pickpocket entertainment. Using a volunteer from the audience, Gene removes personal items –- watch, wallet, tie and more. Usually the volunteer is completely unaware that their personal property is disappearing under their nose; however, the audience is not. This results in some hilarious moments as the flabbergasted “victim” realizes that even forewarned they couldn’t catch “America’s Friendliest Pickpocket” in action!

Pickpocket Demonstration and Challenge

Using audience volunteers, Gene will remove personal items illustrating how quickly a professional pickpocket can distract and collect valuables. While the volunteers are unaware of the items disappearing, the audience is not. This results in some hilarious moments as the flabbergasted “victims” realize that even forewarned they couldn’t catch “America’s Friendliest Pickpocket” in action! At the end of the demonstration, Gene delivers tips to inform the audience about how they can protect themselves from pickpockets and identity thieves.

Up-close Performance

Up-close magic is sometimes described as “Strolling”, “Walk Around” or “Table-to-Table” magic. It is often utilized during a social time or reception. Guests are encouraged to watch closely as Gene performs card tricks, makes coins or other small objects disappear and reappear, and entertains your guests with impressive sleight-of-hand tricks. The comedy and fun will keep your guests laughing.
