For years, man has been desperately trying to break the mold, and think outside of the proverbial box. With each attempt, man would take more and more steps away from the comfort of the box. And with each step, ideas would surely become more creative and unique, but at the cost of complexity and impracticality. The truth is… new and unique ideas still reside in the box… and these are laced with simplicity, workability, and practicality. You just need to know where to look.

Kyle Purnell and Mystique Factory proudly present “Thinking Inside the Box”. In this collection of routines, you’ll find contemporary twists of classic premises as well as refreshingly new ideas that will make you smile. Every routine is audience tested, has practical angles, and has achieved worker status. Whether you are looking for a professional piece to add to a formal set, or something casual you can perform as an icebreaker or for your friends, you will find something here among these 6 killer routines including:

Mysterious: An in the hands version of Mystery Card done with an odd backed card. It appears incredibly fair to the audience, and resets almost instantly for your next group. Perfect for table hopping!

Reusable: An insanely visual restoration of a signed post-it note. You will love the method on this!

V.E.R.B.L: Your spectators don’t stand a chance when you very SLOWLY melt their ring onto a rubber band. Finish by magically and visually knotting the ring onto the band, and hand it back as an impossible souvenir!

SM Vanish: Any selected card slowly melts away as your fingers gently wave over it. No gimmicks or destroyed cards makes this a practical worker that can be utilized in numerous routines.
