Whit Haydn is one of the best minds in magic when it comes to routining classic magic. Routines such as Whit Haydn's Four Ring Routine, the Mongolian Pop-Knot, the Teleportation Device, Chicago Surprise, Fast & Loose, and many others have become standards in the arsenals of many top-flight professionals.

The "Color-Changing Knives" is a wonderful close-up item, but until now, it has had several weaknesses in method and presentation. With Whit Haydn's "The Intricate Web of Distraction," these weaknesses are overcome.

This routine is both practical for the working magician and powerful in performance. The patter is entertaining and funny, and yet, because the humor is based on the situation, it easily adapts to the individual style of the performer.

Whit has performed this routine thousands of times in front of audiences at the Magic Castle, Caesars Magical Empire, trade shows, hospitality suites, and cocktail parties. It never fails to enthrall his audience as he wraps them in a web of intelligent humor and amazing prestidigitation.

The DVD shows a live performance of the routine and then every detail of technique and performance is carefully and thoroughly explained. Watching this DVD is like having a personal lesson in magic from one of the best and most entertaining magicians around today.
