Becky

A month ago a charming young lady moved to Seattle from the Chicago area. She's a friend of Brian Masters. Becky expressed an interest in learning how to do magic and street perform. Since then she has become a regular member of the Alki Beach Magic Studio, Tuesday Night Jam Session. The other day while performing at the market I challenged her to get a crowd. I said, "You don't need to do a whole show and the purpose with this exercise is not to make money. I wanted to see how she did with the notion of stopping that first person and doing a trick or two. She did extremely well!



Becky aka Astrid, is a breath of fresh air. At 19 years old she will be attending college here in Seattle. She bought a set of linking rings from Market Magic and I will be teaching her the Jack Miller routine that I perform. The other day while she was practicing at home, somehow she managed to slice her finger on one of the rings. This is a trick in itself! How the hell do you cut yourself on something smooth and round?

We've been hanging out a bit lately, we went and saw the new Charlie and the Chocolate Factory the other day. Last night after a nice walk on the beach we watched some magic videos. I like Becky. She seems mature beyond her years and I find our conversations stimulating and interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing her again at the session this evening.
