    QUICK CHANGE 2

    As an adviser to magicians I have always been pre-occupied with the subject of “Quick Change” and fascinated by this profession. It is one of the most intriguing, and thus one of the most sophisticated forms of art. Compared to other genres of magic there is surprisingly very little literature on the subject. It was a real sensation when Lex Schoppi published his first book “Quick Change” in 2003. His English language book “Quick Change” triggered a world-wide hype in 2005. With his new book Quick Change 2 Lex Schoppi bestows upon us a glance at his distinguished vestments.

    This book should only be published in strictly limited numbers; the knowledge contained within is so valuable! All the nuances and ruses which the quick change artist has been diligently working on in the past year are served to the reader on a silver platter. The book describes the techniques with reference to a television project and permits a thrilling glance backstage. It becomes clear how much effort, time and money it costs to bring a quick change act on to
    the stage, one which appears lively in performance and is able to inspire with amazingly quick costume changes. From the possible covers, the selection of the correct materials, about the choice of the best tear-away seams, right down to the savoirfaire in the staging, Lex Schoppi
    explains everything in this book. And I really mean everything!

    For everyone who wants to put together a professional act with costume changes, this book is a must.
