I don't think I should be telling you every 10 minutes what to think. I like to leave the audience alone with the magic. I tend to trust the material, or I don't do it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I try not to think too much about what the audience is thinking and what they think I should do.
One thing changes every evening: It's the audience, and I'm working my magic. I'm always learning from it.
I try not to think too much about what the audience is thinking and what they think I should do. I'd be self-conscious if I did. Anyone becomes mannered if you think too much about what other people think.
When the audience enjoys your performance, you feel like a magician who is doing magic. It's a great feeling!
I love the challenge of having an audience know what you're thinking without having to tell the audience what you're thinking.
I prefer more to kind of show people different things than tell them 'oh, here's what you should believe' and, over time, you can build up a rapport with your audience.
It's one of the things that looks good written down, but the reality is that you think about the pieces you're doing and try to bear in mind everyone in the audience.
You've got to keep your finger on the pulse of what your audience is thinking, and know what they'll accept from you.
I always like to have faith that an audience will suspend their disbelief, if you present it to them in the right way. I find it peculiar when people scoff at one bold idea, and yet they'll then turn over and watch a man travel through time in a police phone box. I think it's just how you present the idea.
I hate to lull the audience into letting them think that something is something. It's always fun to defy expectations.
