LECTURE CONTENTS

***CLOSE UP Miracles***

The MOOD Deck MIRACLE
Remember the old "mood rings" from back in the day? The color of the ring would change, depending on your "mood".
A spectator merely thinks of a card, as well as a color and an emotion tied with that particular mood.
The magician incredibly reveals what mood they are feeling by simply touching their finger.
And for the amazing finale...when the spectator touches the deck, the deck is immediately spread, and one card in the center has changed color!
The exact color they are thinking of. When the card is turned over...It is the exact card they have had in their mind the entire time!

52 GONE
Probably the cleanest and most visual vanishing deck you will ever see.

Stand up Triumph
This is a cool version of DAI Vernon's classic TRIUMPH card effect that is not only funny, but super visual, and can be done standing "in the hands" with NO table.

THE OPENER COIN ROUTINE
This is a routine that Kranzo uses as an opener for small groups.
It combines visual magic with comedy and Kranzo uses this routine to talk about the psychology of social dynamics while simultaneously teaching some seriously strong Coin Magic.

Moneyball
This effect will astonish a four-year-old and a 94-year-old. A quarter visually transforms into a rubber bouncy ball and can be immediately given away.

***STAND UP and Parlor MysteriesS***

Repetition
This was nominated for trick of the year in 2021!!! This is Nathan's modern take on "six card, repeat". A stand-up card routine that can be done for a small or large audience, young or old, with built-in comedy and a surprise ending. Oh and it's self-working.

GAGS GALORE
Kranzo will teach several bits, gags, and effects from his classic books Comedy For Magicians and Mentalists.

***FOR THE MENTALISTS***

THE TRU TEST/MAGAZINE TEST
Take any modern magazine and perform a MIRACLE.
Imagine if you could perform the Mother Of ALL Book Tests with a page from a MAGAZINE!

****All this and much MORE!!!!!!!!!

“I love your stuff…..great work!”
-David Copperfield

“One of the best lectures I’ve ever seen!!”
-Jack Carpenter

"Nathan never fails to astonish me every time we meet, he fools me badly."
-Joshua Jay

“Magicians often claim there are no new effects in magic. Nathan Kranzo proves that’s a lie.”
-Teller

“This lecture was one of the best I have attended in a long time. If your group is looking for a GREAT night of entertainment with something for everybody, I highly endorse booking Nate Kranzo.”

Chase, your creativity and behind the scenes effort were next level. You truly helped shape the identity of Magic Medley 2026.

To our amazing performers: Craig Stone, Steven Spence, Taylor Martin's Indy Magic, Tong Li, James Croop, Christopher Alan Mindboggled, Daniel Dow, C Fernando V Ja, Juventino, Lee and Chris Ace Henderson. Thank you for sharing your talent and making this one of Indiana’s most unforgettable magic experiences.
