Several magicians have wanted to or tried to create their own one-man show. Few have succeeded in our community and even fewer have had “legs” that allowed them to continue their shows on an ongoing basis. Of course one of the key ingredients is to live in a metropolitan area with high traffic from local patrons as well as tourists. So, for example, it would be harder to sustain a long-running show in Wichita Falls, Texas as it would be in New York City. Next…you must have talent, patience, fortitude, and…well, you need to listen to this week’s episode to find the “secret sauce” that Ben Jackson uses to create a market for his truly unique brand of magic.
In this episode, Ben talks about entering and winning several magic competitions (including F.I.S.M.), performing on the NBC Today Show with David Copperfield, working and consulting for television and movie projects, plus other corporate work. But Ben also shares how he has developed his successful one-man magic show that has run for over five years in Houston.
