Celebrated Cigarettes

Learn the Cigarette Act of one of the world's all-time great manipulators. Keith Clark's outstanding nite club cigarette act is a lesson in timing, misdirection and routining (blending of effects) from one of the best manipulators of all time.

Here's an overview of what the audience sees. After catching several lit cigarettes from thin air, the performer pushes one into his fist and it changes into a brightly colored 18" silk. The silk is now shown on both sides. The performer then strokes it and another burning cigarette is produced. This cigarette is wrapped in the silk and it passes through. The performer places the cigarette between his lips, covers it with the silk momentarily and it vanishes again. The silk is pocketed. The performer twists his ear and the smoking cigarette reappears in his mouth. The cigarette is discarded. the performer reaches behind his knee and produces another burning cigarette. A puff is taken and the cigarette is rubbed into nothingness by the left fingers, only to be extracted a moment later from the left elbow. It is puffed and poked unmistakenly into the left fist, where it dissolves as instantaneously as it appeared. The magician smiles and the cigarette is seen back in his mouth! After several more impossible feats, the act is concluded with the production of a cigar and pipe. Beautifully illustrated by Nelson Hahne, Celebrated Cigarettes details every move and subtlety of Keith Clark's outstanding routine.
