The "Thread of Life" is a complete professional package with full performance rights to use Wayne Dobson's script word for word written specially for his TV show.
The 'Thread of Life" is an alltime classic. Now you can learn from the masters with Wayne Dobson's original script, Axel Hecklau's handling and perform it with the best quality props.
Since the dawn of time the unanswered question for mankind has always been "Why are we here?". Wayne explains Alistair Witchell's theory. Could it be closer to the truth than you'd expect?
Throughout his TV series 'A Kind of Magic' Wayne presented a routine called 'Alistair Witchell's Amazing Tales'. Here he featured one of his favorite classic storylines based around the Gypsy Thread called The Thread of Life, with credit to The Gypsy Thread by Lewis Ganson
The "Thread of Life" also comes with an improved handling of how to prepare the thread and every possible detail of handling the thread step by step, professionally taught in the video instructions by Axel Hecklau.
The "Thread of Life" includes a Book of Life, an antique book type wooden storage box which contains three wooden spools of white cotton thread, plus four extra refill rolls of thread supply. The thread is 100% cotton and VERY EASY TO BREAK, which is an essential quality for performing the Gypsy Thread effect. In total you get an abundant supply of this special thread for lots of practice and hundreds of performances.
I like everything about this package except for the additional thread spools (for practice or refill of the wooden spools that come with the package). The thread on the three wooden spools is excellent and easy to break. The additional spools contain thinner thread, which is fine. The problem is that the additional spools that came with my package are extremely difficult to break. In my case it is so difficult that I can’t even use it for practice, let alone performance. I admit that I am not all that strong, but I can easily break the thread on the wooden spools.I would like to see Vanishing Inc. check the additional thread and either find a replacement or change the advertising that states that it is also easy to break.Other than that, I really enjoy the effect and the teaching.
