Dan Hauss--Who could create magic with a stick of gum, hairspray and a shoelace? If you answered McGuyver, you are half-correct. Dan Hauss is to magic, what McGuyver is to problem solving. Dan is probably one of THE most creative and original thinkers of magic today. Having been a creative consultant for David Blaine, Dan knows what it takes to create impactful, knockout magic. Meaning, once you perform a Dan Hauss effect, you will actually get knocked out! Kidding of course.

His effect, Diary of Decision, is a real worker for both close-up and stage. In this lecture, Doc is going to keep you laughing while sharing with you some of the secrets that has made him so successful over the years. Prepare to be entertained with Doc Dixon!
