The Thread of Life LITE
Get 250 VI Points for this purchase.
A professional, audience-proven Gypsy Thread routine from Wayne Dobson, in collaboration with Alan Wong.
During his TV series A Kind of Magic, Wayne Dobson presented a routine called "Alistair Witchell's Amazing Tales" which featured his favorite classic storyline for the Gypsy Thread called "The Thread of Life". It's a captivating performance piece revolving around one of mankind's biggest unanswered questions: why are we here?
Now it's easier than ever to learn this all-time classic and perform it with the best quality props.
"The Thread of Life LITE" is a complete professional package with full performance rights to use Wayne Dobson's take on the Gypsy Thread, including using the script word for word as it was written specially for his TV show. You also receive an improved handling of how to prepare and handle the thread, which is professionally taught in the video instructions by Axel Hecklau.
Comes with an antique Egyptian motif wooden storage box containing a wooden spool of white cotton thread, plus the special wax that enhances the handling. The thread is 100% cotton and VERY EASY TO BREAK, which is an essential quality for performing the Gypsy Thread effect.
If you have ever thought about learning the Gypsy Thread routine, this is about as good as a place to go to learn not only the routine, but some of the best tips and insight I have ever seen on how to prepare the string. On top of that, this is hands down, the best string I have ever used for Gypsy Thread.After years of doing the helium balloon version in my stand-up act, I was looking to finally put it into a formal close-up show. The idea of the box it comes in intrigued me but the quality of the thread and how easy it breaks makes this an absolute steal for the price. While I bought the Lite version, I now kick myself for not spending the extra $40 for the deluxe version. I will pay more than that to order refills from Axel and have it shipped across the pond. From what you get from the deluxe version, for some, you may never run out of thread.
